Ormai Brant Bjork<\/strong> sembra averci preso gusto ed ecco che la sua carriera solista si arricchisce dell\u2019ennesimo tassello con questo nuovo \u201cKeep Your Cool<\/strong>\u201d. Non pago di aver scritto pagine fondamentali dello stoner rock con Kyuss e Fu Manchu (senza contare le sue partecipazioni alle Desert Sessions, l\u2019aiuto fornito all\u2019amico Nick Oliveri nei Mondo Generator e il progetto Ch\u00e9), il buon Brant giunge al terzo capitolo della propria saga, continuando sullo stesso percorso gi\u00e0 intrapreso nei dischi precedenti (\u201cJalamanta\u201d e \u201cBrant Bjork and The Operators\u201d) e cio\u00e8 un rilassante e gradevole mix di desert rock, cool jazz, break beat, soul, funk e grooves latini.<\/p>\n

Avendo dato vita ad una label personale (la Duna Records) che gli consente massima libert\u00e0 creativa, il suo rock venato di pop sa essere fresco e spontaneo. Certo, non siamo di fronte ad un disco essenziale o altamente originale, ma il piacere di jammare che emerge dai microsolchi di \u201cKeep Your Cool\u201d \u00e8 segno dell\u2019insanabile voglia di Brant di staccare la spina e godersi la gioia dell\u2019improvvisazione, dell\u2019attimo che vuole fuggire eppure riesce a rimanere impresso. La strada dell\u2019emancipazioni da certi canoni tipicamente stoner \u00e8 ormai tracciata, non ha la potenza e la spinta geniale del compagno di vecchia data Josh Homme nei QOTSA ma si fa apprezzare per la sua spontaneit\u00e0 e la sua freschezza.<\/p>\n

Le capacit\u00e0 di scrittura rimangono le stesse: meno tastiere rispetto al lavoro precedente, ma un pieno di divagazioni latine che fanno pensare al Santana dei bei vecchi tempi (\u201cHey, Monkey Boy\u201d, \u201cKeep Your Cool\u201d), sapori desertici giocati su tappeti di wah-wah e melodie \u201cpiacione\u201d (\u201cJohnny Called\u201d, \u201cGonna Make the Scene\u201d, \u201cMy Soul\u201d), suoni polverosi di chiara matrice stelle e strisce (\u201cRock-N-Rol\u2019e\u201d), feeling pop molto ottantiano (\u201cI Miss My Chick\u201d, song dal testo divertentissimo\u2026) e qualche spruzzata di rock robotico, sempre rilassato e divertito (\u201cSearchin\u2019\u201d).<\/p>\n

Un disco da assaporare in tutta tranquillit\u00e0, insomma, magari sdraiati all\u2019ombra durante una calda giornata estiva con un buon drink ghiacciato in mano. Oppure in un fumoso locale di quart\u2019ordine in qualche sperduta zona di mare californiana.<\/p>\n
