Unaltered empire 3rd album of this French band that deserves an international fame. How can one imagine that Mediavolo is French with such an English sound. Quality of melodies, an elegant & dandy rock sound and a bewitching voice remininding Kate Bush. Mediavolo plays with 70's & 80's sounds to create a kind of melancolic and ethereal rock that could remind Radiohead.
A Fairy voice : Mediavolo's sound is unique but the beautiful voice of Geraldine makes the difference. Sometimes lyrical or sweet like velvet, Geraldine's voice sounds like an angel fell down on earth. Inspired by 'the Metamorphosis' of Kafka, 'Unaltered Empire' tells us the story of a woman who turns into butterfly. She'll be confronted to people's reject but she'll accept her wings to finally fly away in the sky. 10 Tracks :

Ref
: 4AD, Cocteau Twins, ... Genre : Ethereal pop, new wave .... 12 Tracks - 57:23' In the purest tradition of 4AD label ! 'A secret sound' is the 3rd album of the French duet, Geraldine (singer) and Jac (composer, guitarist...). With a specific eighties 4AD sound, Mediavolo awakens an ethereal 'new wave' style with an astonishing knowledge. Atmospheric 80's piano, reverb or distorded guitar, ethereal female voice, pop-wave melody and drums. The smooth Geraldine's voice will remind Cocteau Twins or The love spirals downwards. Mediavolo's composer Jac uses his 70's musical influences such as Mike Olfield, John Barry and 60's movies soundtracks. Atmospheric, pop and new-wave, Mediavolo's melodies and universe is enchanting and smooth like a sweet Haloween candy. To be discovered absolutly, listen to the audio teaser. 12 TRACKS: *How Does It End * Mass Anasthesia* Resolve* Humane & Live* Death & the City * Secret Sound * Misunderstanding * Hoary Man * Hollow Of You* Dripping Mind * Hunted * Chimera
