As hinted at in the songs present on "Lizabeth", "Cantar." brought a few changes.
The now sold out 3 song MCD "Lizabeth" served as an appetizer for the album, which was finally released by June 1997. Reviews: Less than a year after "Dark Age of Reason" and following a few live shows, Arcana introduce "Cantar de Procella". Notes: Recorded in Studio Underground in February/March, 1997. La Reine Des Hommes Aux Yeux Verts (4:50)Ĭredits: Photography - Anna Sörensson Next add a healthy dose of absinth and literary poetic pretentions in that vein from Baudelaire and you come pretty close to what you will hear on this phenomenal Paris Spleen album. Add a decadent atomsphere, rich folk instrumentation with kettle drums and cimbals, trombones and the expected accordion. And if you look closely you might catch a glimpse of hell. The esthetics of madness, the burlesque and the extraordinary. The woman with moustache, the elastic man, the deviner, could salesman or man-in-chains. the Boulevard de Clichy, really appeal to the imaginative, as it shows all the abberations we don’t (want to) confront in the reaility of every-day life. The so-called ‘cabarets macabres’ or ‘ghost cabarets’, such as you could see in a.o. And indeed, this concept album deals with cabarets, circusses, fun fairs and freak shows from the early 20th century which you could find in cities such as Paris or New York.

Reviews: With the first listening session of the Paris Spleen cd from Ataraxia together with the drama company CircuZ Kump the sonic spectacle immediately reminded me of two things: the HBO Carnivale series and the band Dresden Dolls. Notes: Identifying with the artists of that time, CircuZ KumP and Ataraxia have written a collection of songs that could have been played at the beginning of the XXth century in the Cabaret of Heaven rather than in the Tavern of Crooks.
