Brandon Summers e Benjamin Weikel são dois norte-americanos pouco interessados em correrias. cada vez se vê menos, no contexto dos dias frenéticos, mas eles sabem que desses passos lentos nascem construções sólidas, bons discos espaçados pelo tempo que as canções precisam para conquistar o seu espaço, para se deixar ouvir.
nos últimos dias deste Janeiro os The Helio Sequence lançaram o 4º disco, “keep your eyes ahead“. uma colecção de dez temas que se escutam como apeadeiros numa viagem que só faz sentido ser percorrida de uma assentada. uma banda sonora para mais umas quantas primaveras. as que forem precisas para amadurecer, até nova colheita.
é por aqui e desde já, uma das marcas deste 2008. imprescindível.
