Anglo-Norwegian singer Sasha Siem has a new album going on: Most Of The Boys
Sasha Siem is indeed a controversial figure among the alternative genre singers and songwriters. She places herself at the confluence of many unique artists, like György Kurtag, Mauricio Kagel, Salvatore Sciarrino, Claude Vivier, Gerard Grisey, Jose Evangelista, Vivaldi, François Couperin, Robert Schumann, Jean-Philippe Rameau. Having such musical background and making that kind of music morph into your own melodic concept is a lot. Most people listen to 50 Cent and sing like 50 Cent. No innovation. No idea. Perfect simile.
Uniqueness, with this artist, at least, comes from the mixture of tunes and chimes in that crucible that formed her spiritually and musical-wise.
We know we haven't done a great job at transcribing Sasha's lyrics, but "So Polite" is nothing of the kind! Not the attitude, nor the word choice. She's merciless, hitting listeners without any consideration. Hard to decipher? Yes, she is. Though the video might point out where she's going with her new song.
The album will be out in a day. The pirate community is already sharing it. Our pick would be the original vynil. Just to stay original :D
