FANFARE DU CHAOS

Wow! What an unexpected awesome new release by a band I had never heard of. I don't normally write reviews (my writing skills are pretty bad), but when I hear something new this good I feel compelled to. This album feels like a mix of Magma and Dun. It has a vintage French 70s sound to it that Zeuhl fans will love. The songs are extremely varied featuring tons of different instruments. The vocals are weird yet awesome. One moment the music will be very chaotic, the next it will be mellow and graceful with some excellent flute playing. For most people, I think this will take multiple listens to fully digest everything going on. The entire album is consistently bad ass. Exciting from start to finish.

I can't recommend this enough. If you love Zeuhl you will love this. I'd say it's essential.
