“Un album perdu en 1977, retrouvé par hasard au bord de la route.”
From England's heartbroken underbelly: Darren Hayman adapts William Morris' 19th-century socialist chants into warm, fuzzy urban folk — recorded on Morris's own piano, with hand-printed sleeves and left-leaning local choirs. Wholesale Angel Market maps desolation, redemption, and the animal instincts lurking in our rooms on their remarkable debut, while Jack Hayter returns with his haggard, world-beaten balladry — "Tom Waits and mates running amok in a second hand music shop." The Lazy I strips back to rare gentleness on this haunting alt-folk rework, complete with elegant strings, and l'anarchiste heureux conjures a lost 1977 French album where a flat tyre becomes a meditation on freedom.
