L'Orage

Description

NEW ALBUM: TENSE... ELECTRIC... READY TO ERUPT...Over the years, through his albums and collaborations, Arnaud Le Gouëfflec has carved out a unique niche in the world of French song, one that ventures beyond its usual confines, exploring the territories of krautrock, drone, and folk. A singer and songwriter, as well as a comic book writer and novelist, he has collaborated with Dominique A, Noël Akchoté, Jad Fair, and Damo Suzuki. "L'Orage" (The Storm) is an electric and atmospheric album, tense and dreamlike, with pre-apocalyptic themes. Fueled by Olivier Mellano's noise guitars, Régïs Boulard's tribal drumming, Thomas Poli's analog keyboards, John Trap's sonic sorcery, and OoTi's captivating vocals, it evokes the fears of our time, ecological anxiety, the fin-de-siècle atmosphere, and the desire to hide in a cave to protect oneself from the storm and its consequences. An album for the season, acting as a lightning rod.
