Rome : The Dublin Sessions - CD
Ref: 22287
In May 2019, Jerome Reuter spent some quality time among friends in Dublin and ended up recording a selection of several new and gripping folk compositions. During these stout-fueled sessions, local talents were quickly recruited to join in the fun and to give the tracks the necessary Irish grit with traditional instruments such as banjo, bouzouki and uilleann pipes. The tracks this motley band cut in Dublin's legendary Sonic Studio are all completely new and unreleased songs that combine elements of the traditional world of Irish folk music and its up-beat feel, with ROME's rather sombre contemporary songwriting and sentiment. The almost danceable Antenora and Holy Ennui stand out as catchy sing-alongs, whereas songs like Slash 'n' Burn and Vaterland showcase ROME's unique brand of European proto-folk tradition. A special appearance on the haunting ballad Evropa Irredenta is delivered by Sweden's Superstar THÅSTRÖM who has already collaborated with Reuter on the song Stillwell of the 2016 album The Hyperion Machine. The CD comes in a nice digipak. Tracks : 01. Gair Na Lionn 02. Antenora 03. Evropa Irredenta (feat. Thåström) 04. Holy Ennui 05. Slash n Burn 06. Vaterland 07. Mann für Mann 08.Rakes and Rovers 09.
