Disaster Serenades

Description

There are certain albums that are born between the seasons, at a time when everything is more fragile and regenerates with strength. Eugénie Alquezar and Peter K's "Disaster Serenades" is a peak of darkness, an eminently nocturnal record that will continue to spin on the turntable during nights of romantic debacle and insomnia. An aristocratic rock'n'roll liberated from constraints, crafted at home with care, yet not lacking in nervous energy, intricate detailing, and its share of dangers and tensions. While some have mentioned Polly Jean Harvey, The Pretenders, or Karen O to draw parallels between worlds, let us rejoice, Eugénie & Peter reconnect with the tenacious effectiveness of Die Haut. It’s not garage, it’s not pop, it’s not punk, but it’s a bit of all that combined in an explosive and lascivious cocktail. And the asset of a singer with an elastic and intense voice. Parlor Snakes is a Franco-American rock duo based in Paris, accompanied by musicians changing with their evolution. They have released two singles, "Shotguns" & "Tomorrow Never Comes," a first album "Let’s Get Gone" (2012), followed by a second self-titled album recorded in New York by Matt Verta-Ray. "Disaster Serenades" (Hold On/Wagram Music) is the band's 3rd album, set to be released on October 4, 2019, and will be available in digisleeve CD and gatefold vinyl including a CD version.
