from 'Quatorze Pieces De Menace' [CD|2xLP|DIGITAL]
Denovali Records · den178
available in September on all formats at [http://denovali.com/dalecooper]

This new full-length of the cult French Dark Jazz collective is the follow up of the highly acclaimed 2011 output "Métamanoir" - the second release for the German experimental music label Denovali. Halfway from their debut "Parole de Navarre"'s ambient and drone driven soundscapes and the more orchestrated "Métamanoir", this new collection of tracks is following their quest for dreamy but mysterious places.

A hint of 50s cool jazz, a truckload of noise and melodies, again tiny references to Twin Peaks' series soundtrack and some ghostly and deep tone voices: the Dale Cooper Quartet pushes the genre Dark Jazz towards other spaces. The album is further enriched by appearences of guest musicians such as Gaëlle Kerrien (Yann Tiersen) and Alicia Merz (Birds of Passage) on vocals.

Recorded in Brest, Britanny, France, this album always conveys an atmosphere of strangeness and beauty, the trademark of each of the Quartet's records. Based upon the live experiences of the band and their everlasting love for the local landscapes, "Quatorze Pièces de Menace" is as striking, deep, fascinating and beautiful as a storm in the middle of the Atlantic.

Quatorze Pieces De Menace

Dale Cooper Quartet & The Dictaphones - Lampyre Bonne Chère

First taste of the upcoming Frowning Clouds album, 'Whereabouts'. It’s been a long time coming, but worth the wait. 
Combining all their favorite sounds, old and new, it’s definitely a departure from their previous full-length effort. 'Whereabouts' was recorded in Melbourne, Sydney, Madrid and Geelong late 2012. Fourteen songs of groovy, noodling beats and reverberated fake jazz wrapped in vivid artwork by Jason Galea (Zonk Vision).
The LP/CD will be available in Australia November 13 at all good record stores. First 100 copies of both the LP and CD will include a bonus disc filled up with their European tour cassette and singles B sides - available ONLY through mail-order! 
European press out through Saturno Recordings in Spain.
Keep an ear to the ground for album tour dates. Enjoy!

LYRICS

you can turn your back light on now everybody’s gone 
the spiders in the shed have been lonely too long 

in your garden in the rain trying to place a name 
on the dying bugs as they drown in your brain 

where the sun is high 
with the birds in the sky 
and you won’t leave your chair 
because you don’t know how to fly 

but we won’t grow wings if we don’t even try 

soon autumn leaves will fall but we can’t cry for them all 
and there’s a dying bird behind a concrete wall 

now you’ve sent the blues away the yellows have come to stay 
and though you don’t look scared it doesn’t feel that way 

if you die in your dream 
tell me how does it seem 
to have to relive the pain 
that’s already been 
though it may hurt now time will wash the slate clean 

as the time starts to drag 
all your pretty flowers sag 
and your hobo boots 
poke through their plastic bag 

did you think you could wipe them off with a back garden rag
