CALVA LOUISE – EDGE OF THE ABYSS – ALBUM REVIEW

The individual stories of how each band member came to form Calva Louise is remarkable and when combined their journey to this point is simply incredible. Never afraid to take huge risks, their gambles have all paid off with the release now of a gnarly new album of epic proportions.

‘Edge of the Abyss’ is their fourth album and sees the trio taking giant strides towards achieving their long-held goals of success. Having each moved across the world with hopes of making music, the fact that this record is the genre-defying earworm that it is should serve as vindication for their bravery and daring to believe in themselves.

This eleven track, forty minute collection is truly fascinating and will warrant multiple listens in order to experience every aspect. It would be easier to list the genre’s not covered here then the various influences that emerge during the record.

Whereas sometimes that means an album sounds disjointed and lacking direction, it works to the opposite effect on ‘Edge of the Abyss’. As vocalist Jess Allanic segues between English and Spanish lyrics, the sonic onslaught feeds the overarching eclecticism of the records identity.

With Allanic’s self-designed sci-fi world again providing the themes of the songs this album acts as a much needed escape from the real world. Indeed, from opener ‘Tunnel Vision’ to the fantastic finale of ‘Under The Skin’ this is Calva Louise operating on another level.
