Search, The
Heart's Racing
Only 6 months after the retro-inspired, two-album journey of THE SEARCH came to an end, the band are publishing their new Indie Rock record "Heart's Racing". As in the previous two albums, Razmig Tekeyan wrote, recorded, and mixed the complete album himself. "Heart's Racing" is formed by old ideas blended into new songs within the well-known THE SEARCH framework that has Razmigs singer-songwriter abilities as its core. Trusting his intuition, he brought the guitar back in the spotlight and the result bears a passing resemblance to the highly acclaimed album "Staying Alive In A Country Industrialized"; more distorted guitars, fewer synths, sparse acoustic parts, inspiration drawn from songs such as "The Warrior" by Scandal, "One Night Love Affair" by Bryan Adams, and "Your Love" by The Outfield, are few of the ingredients that make up the no less than 18 tracks of "Heart's Racing". The album is about ambition versus inhibition, desire in contrast to reality and those moments when the heart is racing but the mind is resisting. Framed by "Saturday Night" and "Tell me Im not alone", the work includes a homage to the band Pulp ("Ghosts"), while the bass and drums in "In my restless Dreams" are inspired by an old The Search track called "Panic Attack".
