4 stars Guilty pleasures.

I had the misfortune or luck to have read Horse Palace's ,2013, "L'Antivierge" intentions for this release. In short an ode to what nowadays may seem like soft-porn movies, although it is quiet evident it has to do especifically with the highly famous and profitable "Emmanuelle" saga and without question to its original heroine the exquisite Silvia Kristel, which graces the art cover, shamelessly and pruriently but also kind of stupidly, anonymous. (Horse Palace does not mention neither the movies nor the actress yet, I repeat, he emphasizes it stubbornly.)

Anyway, this could actually be a tribute to one of Emmanuelle's movies, that had to do with her taste for being seduced and mistreated by an oriental old stud, which teaches her some, then very daring, sexual practices. These movies I repeat were a worldwide sensation, so if you can picture it you will be thrilled by this musical project in terms of early sexual arrousement attached with exotic (oriental) and cliched extravagances and of course sweat and buckets of fluids.

So, as I mentioned, I read the conceptual intention and can not listen to it without remembering beautiful and innocent "Emmanuelle" seduced and submitted by this oriental and mysterious old-despot . Anyway I throughly enjoy these "postcards" of early and confusing sexual awakening!

**** 4 PA stars.
