RamTatTa - Redensart – In the End, Not Everything Was Bad

Cheerfully deceived, and while I internally prepare myself for "An der Nordseeküste" with the sound of the accordion, REDENSART are already deep into a contemplative song about letting go of cherished things. Of what has been used up. It’s not always immediately clear what the songs are about, which are presented with acoustic instrumentation, multiple voices, and always a lot of passion. On an emotional level, however, it flows smoothly and invites you to listen to the four pieces again right away. And with each listen, they gain something. That’s how it should be. Not inflated, no pathos, and a melancholic note always resonates.

There is one single moment where I always flinch a little, namely in the attempt to rock in the last piece. So, rock as in rock music. It remains: An honorable attempt. Also honorable is the attempt to be sued by Yoko Ono by stealing, uh, covering a John Lennon quote. Then REDENSART would suddenly be mentioned in the same breath as the BEATLES! Oh, better not. This is good stuff, soak it in. Through the ears.
