-Translated from French to English-
Red Square DIGITAL (2002) Influenced according to their statements by the
traditional ones of the synthpop like Anything Box, Depeche Mode, The Human League
etc... The music of Provision does not feel any énormement. Admittedly one deals with
magnet, very dancing, but not so pop that that. If the tendency is at certain groups to
find a singer of which the voice will resemble more the "model" to respect, Provision
makes a jump towards the originality. The song energetic, intense, almost aggressif, is
combined with a single sound which makes their characteristic. Composed of Breye
Kiser, Leslie Hyman and Alex Virlios, Provision come us straight of Texas (Houston),
just like Iris and one flopée of other excellent groups, and have already a great
number of concerts to their credit, in particular in first part of Red Flag, Anything Box,
Low technicians, Imperative Reactions, Cut Rate Box, Cause & Effect... One wonders
why this group still does not have a label, being given the quality of this first album
"Evaporate", and the fact that they seem to enjoy successes considerable in Texas
and the USA. They were elected besides "better new group" into 2002 with the
"american synthpop awards" in Los Angeles. The group is currently recording the
second Visualize album, which should leave before the end of the year.
