| Damon
was bored of the U.S.A. He wanted change and he find it when moving to
France with his wife Fabienne, bringing with him the Chrome entity. Helios
is left in San Francisco, where he will start a solo career. The first
recording of the "new" Chrome can be heard on the terrific Into
The Eyes Of The Zombie King. Instrumentation and song structures became
much simpler than before, giving a "purity" quality to Damon's
music. Guitars are now played by french musician Remy Devilla, becoming
the necessary second-half that Chrome needs. One must admit that the guitar
work is amazingly basic, but that seems to fall into Damon's new vision
of Chrome. They punctuates ice-rock anthems as Trip The Switch and You
Can't Do Anything, while Damon brings synthesizers upfront on robotic
songs as And Then The Red Sun or Humans In The Rain, where his voice gives
claustrophobic tones. This is the beginning of a new era marked by coldness
and catchiness. |
