Made up his mind not to hold back anymore the bustling stream of his unbridled inspiration, John Frusciante have thus promised to whom wanted to hear it that he would now come out several records by year. Automatic Writing is in this way the last delivery of our prolific Californian, just some months after his amazing Will To Death and Shadows Collide With People. Oscillating between long contemplative tracks where improvisation seems to be queen (the magical Another or even the much beautiful Montreal, which concludes in an ideal way this haunted record) and between darker passages all guitars out (Dust which open brightly the album), Sir Frusciante present us with at the end 5 captivating tracks, far away from the pop fusion universe rather smooth of the last Red Hot’s records. To believe that the young prodigy (also the author of a fabulous Soundtrack for the Vicent Gallo’s Brown Bunny, still unpublished in France) suffer from schizophrenia. For our biggest pleasure.
