Vicious Circle is very pleased to welcome the French noise/math rock band Mule Jenny for the release of their second album, scheduled for Spring 2025. More information very soon!
 

Only one year after the release of their last studio album Pink Colour Surgery, warmly praised (featuring in top 2023 albums for Libération, Les Inrocks, Mowno; having TV appearances, recording a KEXP session, etc.), Psychotic Monks returns more confident than ever with Talking Through Repetition, a live rereading in the form of artistic achievement.

Very renowned for their ability to offer high-flying concerts, both fiery, experimental, and always deep in emotions, Psychotic Monks decided to record their current live set in the legendary Ile-de-France studios La Frette (Nick Cave, Arctic Monkeys, etc.), in order to record the vital essence of their music and share it more widely. The release of the double album, once again produced with style by accomplice Daniel Fox (Gilla Band, Lambrini Girls, Sprints), is scheduled for August 23rd and will undoubtedly contribute to establishing the French group as one of the most exciting and adventurous of his generation.

'This album was recorded entirely live in one take during the band’s 2023 tour, between a show in Dijon and Dunkerque. It serves as a testimony to the essence of our music at that moment.' - The Psychotic Monks

Lysistrata a négocié le virage de son troisième disque avec une incroyable souplesse. Le trio indé rock de Saintes marque son passage à l’âge adulte en sublimant son aspect pop. Veil est un album créé pour danser, chanter et vivre ses émotions jusqu’à l’abandon. Un album fédérateur qui touchera juste et fort, bien au-delà du premier cercle de fans de ce groupe si sincère.
 

Lysistrata will be on the road in 2024! Get your tickets! All dates are listed here. Booking by AFX.

Release day for Dawn Of The Dusk, the groundbreaking new album from heavy psych trio Mars Red Sky! Available in all good record stores and via our online store in digipak CD, black vinyl, and marble trans-lime vinyl (limited edition)! Also online on all digital platforms.
