“Ô ruines ! je retournerai vers vous prendre vos leçons, je me replacerai dans la paix de vos solitudes.”Constantin-François Volney, Les Ruines ou méditation sur les révolutions des empires [1791]De tous les Cyril qu’enfanta la Cité de Calvin à l’orée des années 80, ces deux-là devaient fatalement se trouver. Deux Cyril comme deux âmes dizygotes dont les aléas ont hâté la rencontre. Cyril Cyril. Hydre libre, née de cette ville de diplomates où Borges, dans L’Autre, dédoublait son égo rajeuni.Sur les ruines de leurs groupes éreintés s’échafaude un empire d’essence cosmopolite. Car ces Cyril ont engrangé des miles, depuis leur havre genevois.Muezzin sans frontières, Cyril Yeterian vient au monde échevelé dans Mama Rosin. Un trio réveillant les spectres des bayous voyous, les Mardi Gras moites d’une Louisiane électrique. Le monde, très vite, s’éprend de leur verve. La BBC les fête, Jon Spencer les produit, les disques prolifèrent. Et puis en 2017, l’état de grâce trépasse. Cyril est seul.Oh, pas tout à fait. Car autour de lui champignonne la musique. Dans sa boutique Bongo Joe, sur le label du même nom, dans les soirées DJ qu’il fomente en sous-sol, Yeterian défriche à tout va, dans une boulimie de grooves exilés.Dans le même espace-temps, Cyril Bondi, lui, prend la tangente. Diatribes, La Tène, Insub Meta Orchestra, les projets les plus aventureux de la scène genevoise ont tous maille à partir avec ce percussionniste en quête de pulsations inouïes. Lui aussi voyage, connaît l’ascension, l’ivresse des cimes et la chute. Plaistow, son groupe de jazz médiumnique, d’hypnose acoustique, chahute le landerneau saturé du trio piano-basse-batterie et conquiert les coeurs d’Europe et d’Orient. Jusqu’à la rupture.Bondi cherche alors un local pour y déposer son attirail. Il trouve mieux: un complice en prospection musicale, un Cyril au diapason de son instinct frondeur.Plus question donc de s’appuyer, tel le “Colosse de Rhodes”, sur des piles éprouvées. L’aventure réclame un nouveau bagage, un nouveau langage. Cyril et Cyril sont dans un bateau et tous deux se jettent à l’eau.Guitariste et accordéoniste, Cyril Y. adopte le banjo. Il y greffe des pédales d’effet qui ont tôt fait de le muer en bouzouki malingre, en saz épique, en lyre d’Addis. Cyril B, lui, recompose une batterie de cuisine cannibale, sertissant sa grosse caisse modèle fanfare de grelots maousses et de noix tropicales.Il faut avoir vu ces deux là, un soir de festival populeux, surchauffer un club étriqué en convoquant des négus utopiques. Jouer aux nouveaux berbères, provoquer d’improbables soukous sismiques en une transe qui tient autant du vertige hippie que de Fraggle Rock.Car la musique, pour Cyril Cyril, est un usage du monde. Un décentrement joyeux qui offre de nouvelles prises à l’appréhension du chaos. Le propos ici, n’a rien d’une partie de campagne mondialisée, d’un exotisme gluten-free. Sous la plage, les pavés. Le politique affleure toujours à la surface de ces chants grisants, de ces grooves osseux.Quand il ne remonte pas la filière familiale d’un dialecte libanais adopté sur le tard, Cyril Yeterian scande en français des rhapsodies dont le vocable impérieux dit tout des insurrections qui viennent.Ainsi de “La ville”, harangue doorsienne où la verve épique d’un Prix Goncourt (Texaco de Patrick Chamoiseau) rencontre les prophéties poétiques du Comité Invisible. Ainsi d’”Ultra moderne solitude 2”, plus Alain Péters que Souchon, où l’on s’interroge: “Où sont donc parties les âmes / avec qui prendre les armes”.Rien pourtant de nature à transformer Certaine Ruines en un pamphlet bavard de mauvais plaisants, de rabat-joies néo-post-tout. Parce que, reconnaissons-le, “c’est intimidant le léviathan” (“Sous la mer c’est calme), Cyril Cyril sait les pouvoirs supérieurs de la suggestion, de la retenue, de la sobriété heureuse.Un mot, un cri en dit bien d’autres, pour peu qu’il soit habité. Un son de duo, réduit à sa plus simple expression - rythme-riff-voix - peut porter en lui, double hélice d’ADN, un organisme musical d’une luxuriance infinie. 
Cyril Cyril, si riche, si riche.

Light in the attic did a terrific job on this reissue..
In the late-1970s Athens, Georgia was buzzing with a raw but sophisticated music scene. Traditional Southern rock had been the Georgia musical export for years before but the turn of the decade began producing new sounds from bands like the B-52’s, REM and Alt Rock luminaires Pylon. Before they were a band, Pylon were art-school students at the University of Georgia: four kids invigorated by big ideas about art and creativity and society. However, Pylon were less of a band and more of an art project, which meant they had very specific goals in mind, as well as an expiration date. While their time together as a band was short lived (1979-1983), Pylon had a lasting influence on the history of rock and roll. Throughout their brief history, they were able to create influential work that would help foster the post-punk and art-rock scene of the early 80s. Artists like R.E.M., Gang of Four, Sonic Youth, Sleater-Kinney, Interpol, Deerhunter and many more claim inspiration from the band. Their 1979 single ‘Cool’ / ‘Dub’ reached legendary status, with Rolling Stone titling it one of the 100 Greatest Debut Singles Of All Time. In 1980 the band released their first record, ‘Gyrate’, and began touring across the country in support of the release. The band would soon develop a following across the country and specifically in the bustling music scene in New York City. One of their earliest gigs was opening for the Gang of Four in the Big Apple. Following the critical acclaim of their debut release, Pylon went back into the studio. They gleefully pulled their songs apart and put them back together in new shapes, revealing a band of self proclaimed nonmusicians who had transformed gradually but noticeably into real musicians. The resulting album, ‘Chomp’, was barely off the press when Pylon were booked to open a run of dates for a hot new Irish band called U2 (after previously playing two arena shows with them in the month leading to the album release). Most bands would have jumped at the opportunity but Pylon were sceptical. At a critical point in the life of Pylon, they opted to become a cult band rather than stretch their defining philosophy too far. “We fully intended Pylon to be an almost seasonal thing that we were gonna do for a minute and then get on with our lives,” says Curtis Crowe, drummer for the band. “But it just never went away. It still doesn’t go away. There’s a new subterranean class of kids that are coming into this kind of music, and they’re just now discovering Pylon. That blows my mind. We didn’t see that coming.” New West Records are proud to partner with Pylon to reissue ‘Chomp’ and ‘Gyrate’ back into the masses. Beautifully remastered from the original audio sources and pressed on vinyl (140g) for the first time in over 30 years. New West Records also present ‘Pylon Box’, a comprehensive look at the band that features the remastered studio LPs ‘Gyrate’ and ‘Chomp’, the 11-song collection ‘Extra’ - which includes rarities and previously unreleased studio and live recordings - and ‘Razz Tape’, Pylon’s first ever recording: a 13-song unreleased session that pre-dates the band’s seminal ‘Cool’ / ‘Dub’ debut. ‘Pylon Box’ also includes a hardbound 200-page full colour book featuring pieces written by the members of R.E.M., Gang of Four, Steve Albini, Corin Tucker and Carrie Brownstein of Sleater-Kinney, Sonic Youth, Interpol, B-52’s, Bradford Cox of Deerhunter, Mission of Burma, Calvin Johnson of Beat Happening and K Records, Anthony DeCurtis, Chris Stamey of the dB’s, Steve Wynn of the Dream Syndicate and many more. Features an extensive essay chronicling the band’s history, with interviews with the surviving members of the band as well as members of R.E.M., B-52’s, Gang of Four, Method Actors and more. It also features never before seen images and artifacts from both the band’s personal archives as well as items now housed at the Special Collections Library at the University of Georgia and the Georgia Museum of Art, UGA.
