個人的には、2021年の過去作の方が好きかな。

 

The differences between Parannoul’s 2021 breakout LP To See The Next Part Of The Dream and follow-up After The Magic provide a textbook case of why reducing everything in music discussion down to genre classification is foolhardy. Indeed, both records could be approximated to the same wide styles: shoegaze, bedroom indie, emo, etc. And the similarities don’t end with genre, either - both are ten-song collections with expansive runtimes extremely close to one hour. But in the ways that truly matter, After The Magic is a transformative reversal of its predecessor’s vibe and feel.

To See The Next Part Of The Dream rose to prominence through its inherent appeal to overworked, underpaid, and generally disaffected youth, who are (coincidentally) one of the great demographics of staunch music fandom. With angst and depressiveness wrapped up tightly in its set of lo-fi, fuzzed-out, longform guitar jams, what the record lacked in refinement and even consistency was made up for (at least in the eyes of many) by raw emotion and the ability to latch on to the listener in a deeply personal way. All this was enough to grant Parannoul a prime spot in a burgeoning movement boldly claimed as the “5th wave of emo”, a place secured fully with the release of split Downfall Of The Neon Youth alongside two other paragons of the said wave, a move which brought even more acclaim.
