Westerman, le maverick pop né à Londres et basé à Athènes, est de retour avec son nouvel album, “An Inbuilt Fault”.

Les neuf chansons de l’album ont pris forme au plus profond de la pandémie et constituent la bande-son de deux années d’isolement intense, de solitude, de chagrin d’amour et d’effroi pour Westerman. L’expression “an inbuilt fault” est elle-même un examen des défauts inhérents et innés qui font de nous des êtres humains – une réponse viscérale à la désillusion de Westerman à l’égard de l’IA et des médias sociaux au cours de cette période.

À travers tout cela, l’album est viscéral et sonne en direct, plein du son de la respiration et des gestes idiosyncrasiques des instruments acoustiques. Il crée une sensation d’espace, donnant l’impression que les musiciens sont rassemblés dans une pièce et se transmettent des idées évolutives. Coproduit avec le producteur et percussionniste James Krivchenia (Big Thief), et avec une équipe élargie de collaborateurs de Los Angeles, “An Inbuilt Fault” présente une musique plus lourde et plus audacieuse sur le plan sonore que les précédents albums de Westerman, et il s’agit de l’écriture la plus aventureuse et la plus libre de toute la carrière de Will Westerman.

‘An Inbuilt Fault’ fait suite à ‘Your Hero Is Not Dead’, le premier album acclamé de Westerman en 2020, un projet gracieux et autoréflexif qui lui a valu d’être considéré comme l’un des nouveaux artistes les plus discutés de l’année grâce aux profils de Pitchfork (‘Rising’), Stereogum (‘Artist To Watch’), et Rolling Stone (‘Artist You Need To Know’)”.

“Westerman — the London-born, Athens-based pop maverick — has returned with his new album, ‘An Inbuilt Fault’.

The album’s nine songs took shape throughout the depths of the pandemic and soundtrack Westerman’s reckoning with two years of intense isolation, loneliness, heartbreak, and dread. The phrase “an inbuilt fault” itself is an examination of the inherent and innate flaws that make us human – a visceral response to Westerman’s disillusionment with AI and social media during this time period. 

Through it all, the album is visceral and live-sounding, full of the sound of breath and the idiosyncratic gestures of acoustic instruments. It creates a spatial feeling, sounding like musicians assembled in a room, passing evolving ideas back and forth. Co-produced with producer and percussionist James Krivchenia (Big Thief), and featuring an extended crew of Los Angeles associates, ‘An Inbuilt Fault’ exhibits music that is heavier and more sonically daring than Westerman’s previous releases, and it is the most adventurous and unselfconscious songwriting of Will Westerman’s career.

‘An Inbuilt Fault’ follows Westerman’s acclaimed 2020 debut ‘Your Hero Is Not Dead,’ a graceful and self-reflective project which earned him a spot as one of the most talked about new artists of the year thanks to profiles from Pitchfork (‘Rising’), Stereogum (‘Artist To Watch’), and Rolling Stone (‘Artist You Need To Know’).”
