Enon - Believo!


When it comes to oldies, we always think about 60's, 80's, 90's... but this albums was released in 2000 as a side effect of the millennium change, bringing a new vision to what we knew about indie rock music. Sadly I was 7 years old and I didn't know anything about anything. 

Believo! is one of those albums you can enjoy everywhere, anytime, really... It's one of those weirdoes that you easily fall in love with. But still, Enon is and always will be a band of first sight love, or in this case, love at first time listening. It's not a secret that Enon is rooted in experimentation, probably because of Brainiac influence. It sometimes can get to be cloudy and heavy to listen. Even to me. But that's what I'm talking about. If you didn't like them from the start you are probably not reconsidering that anytime soon. 

Believo! is the album. Every band has "the album". It doesn't have to be the best, but it has to have something that makes it special among the rest. You just notice it listening to Rubber Car, skipping to Cruel and it's like the whole universe collapses. "What is this?" you ask. Well that is Enon, get used. Believo! The song has all in the same song, is a catchy electronic-like experiment pretending to be a weirdly sung song. 

This album is the album of no sentiments. It's not void but it's kind of clean. It’s prefect backing music if you are tripping on LSD. This is basically the main idea under Enon music so yeah, get used.

So I didn't say anything but I said a lot. I simply rate this album with 7.5 out of 10. It's a great experimental album but it's hard to understand them if you just don't at the first time.
