The Norvins' "Time Machine" by Raw Power magazine (in french)
"Quatuor parisien, formé d'Edouard (chant, harmonica), Pascal (guitare), Franck (basse), Jérome (orgue) et Gerry (batterie), The Norvins ont sorti en 2008 leur premier album, le bien nommé Time Machine. De voyage dans le temps, il en est question tout au long des quatorze titres qui composent ce premier opus, tant l'album renvoit au garage sixties, celui des Nuggets, Back From The Grave et autre Mindrockers ou Pebbles.
Les deux premiers titres, l'instrumental "Norvin's Theme" et l'épileptique "Mean Judith" sont vite expédiés et pour cause les deux titres tournent autour de la minute, mais c'est pour mieux masquer l'excellence des trois morceaux qu'enchaînent le groupe ensuite.
"Invisible Woman" porté par un orgue omniprésent et "Fleshtones In Your Head" au jeu à la fois précis et incisif du batteur Gerry sont deux pépites, qui démontrent qu'en France des groupes sont capables de se hisser au niveau des meilleurs groupes anglosaxons. Et que dire de "You Got It Right" évoquant les Irlandais de The Revellions par la même urgence rock'n rollienne gorgée de farfisa ! Bluffant...
La voix d'Edouard, qui rappelle beaucoup celle de Mick Collins des Dirtbombs, colle à merveille aux morceaux et on regrette d'ailleurs que cette dernière ne soit pas mis plus en avant.
Le groupe reprend ensuite "Nothin'" des Ugly Ducklings, groupe garage sixties canadien (l'original est écoutable sur le 4e cd des Nuggets II...).
Le rythme ne faiblit pas avec un un "Easy Goin' Annie" introduit par quelques accords d'harmonica et présentant un break remarquable à mi-morceau avant que le groupe n'enfonce le clou avec un "Around Your World" joué pied au plancher.
La face B repart sur les mêmes bases avec un très bon "Spell In Your Heart", réhaussé d'un doublement dans les voix et qui permet surtout au guitariste, Pascal, de faire étalage de son sens du riff.
"Baby Face" est l'occasion de souligner les superbes parties de basse qui structurent chaque morceau apportant une assise qui permet aux autres musiciens de s'exprimer. Souvent la basse est le parent pauvre dans le garage, les groupes axant tout sur les guitares et/ou l'orgue. C'est sans doute un des éléments qui fait que The Norvins est bien au dessus de la concurrence aujourd'hui.
"You're Getting Old" et "Hounds On Your Trail" poursuivent dans la même veine, sans que jamais on ne se lasse, le groupe trouvant toujours le "petit truc" qui fait la différence, comme cette partie de guitare au coeur de "Hounds On Your Trail", simple mais diablement efficace !
Soucieux de rendre hommage à leurs prédécesseurs le groupe reprend "Abba" de The Paragons, groupe sixties (à ne pas confondre avec le groupe jamaïcain du même nom).
Cet album jouissif s'achève sur "Succes Story", un titre que l'on espère prémonitoire tant le groupe présente de qualités.
C'est bien simple ce disque à sa place actuellement aux côtés de ceux de The Urges et de The Revellions.
Le disque est trouvable en vinyle ou cd (comme d'hab on conseillera le LP...) entre 11 ou 12 euros à ce prix là, ce serait dommage de s'en priver !
