Record review: Sacre Noir – ‘She Can’t Take It’

The new single from Sacre Noir is moody blues that sounds like it’s been filtered through transistors, capacitors and other gadgetry.

To call this track merely a soulful voice crossed with electronic blips and beeps would be doing it a disservice.

That’s a menacing, marching pace to the whole thing that gives it greater intention than simply being a self-indulgent musical experiment.

‘She Can’t Take It’ benefits from a strong female vocal that remain centre stage while intelligent production adds layer after layer of interest to the track – by mixing traditional instruments with more modern synthesizers and recording techniques, the result is a track that retains that blues/soul quality, while fitting into todays musical climate.
