Figures In Motion - Confusion Will Pass |
One of the songs that came up was Curled Up by French indie band Figures In Motion. It's off of their debut album Confusion Will Pass, which was released in 2014.
Confusion Will Pass is the first full-length album of Figures in Motion. It was entirely written, recorded and produced at home. Mastered by Jeff Ferrand (WooDBox Studio).This album was a treat to listen to. It truly lives up to the "indie" tag, though touches down into pop and alternative on a few tracks. Overall, I heard some heavy Coldplay influences - the lead vocalist Mickaël Menu sounds a lot like Chris Martin - mixed with Radiohead. Not surprisingly, Radiohead is listed first among their main influences (others include Sigur Rós and Aphex Twin). The sound of the band is predominantly electronic, but there are some acoustic touches as well, with a lot of piano.
I couldn't really key in on the lyrics - it was hard for me to figure out what they were singing about. Granted, I was working while listening, but Menu's singing style made it hard to pick out distinct words and I found it hard to decipher any meaning behind the music. That said, the instrumentation is fantastic and was what drew me to the album in the first place. I just wish I could have picked out more of the words.
