Second one:
This one is named TARAB طَرَبٌ and will be released as a 2xLP (but hopefully also on CD or even DVD?) on the Sub Rosa label later this year. It's not listed yet anywhere, but there's already a YT clip of it: OISEAUX-TEMPÊTE - CARNAVAL (LIVE)
It was recorded at the Trabendo in Paris, and I was there :D
And I so much hope that this release will be complete and unedited, the final encore song is as far unreleased and it was mind-blowingly awesome

The second album TARAB is now available for pre-order from e.g.:
https://www.oiseaux-tempete.com/tarab.html
https://oiseaux-tempete.bandcamp.com/album/tarab
https://www.subrosa.net/en/catalogue...te--tarab.html
The release date is 22 June (or according to one of those three links 11 June). One track is already streaming on bandcamp and soundcloud.

Unfortunately one track is download only, vinyl includes download code, but not the CD ??? And it seems it's not the complete show they did at Trabendo venue in Paris, but more a compilation from the entire tour. But I do believe the song I'm hoping for is on it: Grasse Matinée (feat. G.W.Sok) which is apparently a poem by Jacques Prevert

richard youngs made a pop(ish) album!
jan jelinek is a must hear
clairo ep any day now
alex zhang something aka dirty beaches has a processed saxophone album in june
m geddes gengras ambient/field recording album, also in june
possible tim hecker

Anyone on here heard the new Courtney Barnett album?

Bought it a coupla weeks back and I'm really digging it. She's got a great voice that I can't get enough of. Give it a whirl.

Prefuse 73’s “Late to the Party” is damn good. I feel like they get virtually no attention anymore, but they drop a solid and occasionally thrilling album every couple years like clockwork.

That new Oneohtrix Point Never is fucking atrocious. Impossible to sit through it all.

We're very excited to announce that Mary Lattimore and Meg Baird are joining the Violators on our Euro tour in October and November. They'll have a new duo record out this fall that we can't wait to hear every night.

AllMusic, meanwhile, gave it 4½ stars. Shit's crazy like that.

Don't shoot me; I'm just the messenger and I haven't listened to it yet.

KIDS SEE GHOSTS is actually amazing.

That one is exciting

Songs sound ... exactly like Spiritualized. Which is fine, but might not be enough to hold my attention in this era of KIDS SEE FUCKIN GHOSTS BITCH

Carla Bozulich has a new album out, it's phenomenal, it's called Quieter, it features Noveller and Marc Ribot, why are you not listening to it right now, you people must be retarded.

Man, heard this album today for the first time. Great album. 5th track sensation is the best by a long way, even if it's just a heavier/more distorted version of Trans Europe Express.

Robert Christgau on No Age's album (he takes his sweet time to review new releases these days :) ):

Quote:

No Age: Snares Like a Haircut (Drag City) Ever since they were the de facto house band at LA's Smell, these two art-punks have subsisted totally within the insular club/museum/gallery/festival circuit. So five years after the somewhat abstract An Object, this grand return to the ugly-gorgeous is true to itself as if the larger society was no more vexing than it ever was. Ditching Sub Pop for indier-than-that Drag City, they do what they've always done only better: abrade and uplift simultaneously. Drummer-vocalist Dean Spunt is an equal partner—"Send me / Where should I go?" he repeats and repeats on the first true singalong in a catalogue more songful than you'd figure. But guitar cenobite Randy Randall owns the record. Unfurling more harmonic effects than I bet he can name, he envelops every catchy tunelet and nasty noise in overtones that'll tear you up as in make you cry and tear you up as in blow your mind. Attributing political significance or hope to this act of aesthetic commitment would misrepresent its intent. It means only to help its people thrive in whatever world proves their lot. A
