The new Rico Friebe album Dream has arrived and it has been a true one-man job on drums, piano, Hammond organ, (bass) guitar and vocals! For converting his recent and life-long recurring dreams to lyrics and music, the decision to mainly embed these into one personally favored dream pop-rock/shoegaze scenery stood to reason for him. Opened (and closed) by the multi-guitar instrumental 'Cayman,' Rico Friebe sets a fugitive premise (not to be understood fiscally!) for something bigger and interfering to come. "Dissect" immediately dissects the already crumbling, warping and distorting dream of an enchanted archipelago and falls into a scenario of a burning world. "Crippled" then comes down as a more palpable take on people leaving others high and dry in a grueling and fatal way while "Folder Zero" marks a consecutive shift of perspective and moment of recollecting decisions. "You Know (How)" suddenly appeals as an upbeat pop-appealish try to grasp interhuman interaction and communication followed by its more gritty counterpart "Disconnect" that deals with those preceding things and hopes falling apart. "Seven" happens to be a magic number as well as a magic moment disputing the troubles and struggles of interacting and deciding within close emotional situations leading to a universal introspective (maybe the Friebe's most apt yet) with "Lessons" positioned to be infinity number 8 on purpose here. "Now" is the musically lightest moment on the album and a recourse on the earlier pop-appeal of "You Know (How)" before a hypnotically replaying chain of questioning "When?" enters the final spotlight. Ultimately, "Namyac" spawns memories of how all of this once began. What once was dreamt in a few seconds, now unfolds in a truly unique and individual manner on this (once again) unexpected new album work by Rico Friebe!
