Bell Oeil - Hurle Tout Léo Ferré

Review by Riley Smith

Bell Oeil's latest album, Hurle Tout Léo Ferré, is a tribute to the legendary French singer-songwriter Léo Ferré. The album features a collection of Ferré's most iconic songs, reimagined and performed in Bell Oeil's unique style.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful rendition of "Les Anarchistes," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Bell Oeil's ethereal vocals and the minimalist instrumentation create an atmosphere that is both melancholic and uplifting.

The album's standout track is "Avec le Temps," which is given a fresh and modern twist by Bell Oeil. The song's poignant lyrics about the passage of time and lost love are delivered with raw emotion, making it one of the album's most moving moments.

Bell Oeil's interpretation of "La Mémoire et la Mer" is another highlight of the album. The song's haunting melody and poetic lyrics are perfectly suited to Bell Oeil's ethereal voice, creating a mesmerizing and otherworldly experience.
