Lena Tsibizova - (2019) 3rd Track

 

Baba Vanga ‎– VNG027 

Lena Tsibizova’s album - entitled simply - *3rd Track* hovers somewhere between distant and not so distant memories or, rather, daydreams. It is a dialogue between two people, lead through piano keys, different microphone effects and random walks through wastelands. The album has been born from a collaboration between Lena and her friend Sasha, during her visits to Saint Petersburg from Moscow, where she's based. “Way to Metallostroy” was inspired by a long stroll through a St Petersburg suburb, for instance. "Call To Mind" is a fractured fantasy, a broken ballad unrolling, going forward and backward at the same time. *3rd Track* is an album that creeks, squeaks, and splinters, but is ultimately soaked in blissful melodies, though they rarely abandon the more melancholic of terrains.
