Sian Alice Prepare To Release A New Album

Sian Alice will release Troubled, Shaken ETC., August 4th.

Sian Alice Group (pronounced “Shahn”) – a collective of UK musicians Sian Ahern, Rupert Clervaux and Ben Crook, amongst other collaborators – had quite the rookie season in 2008. From the epic 59.59 and The Dusk Line (a subdued piano and vocals only EP) to the wholeheartedly experimental Remix 12'', the band made the scene, built up stellar stats and positioned itself as a contender to be reckoned with. Now we lift the curtain on 2009. Sian Alice Group is back with Troubled, Shaken Etc. - their second album of lush, minimalist, panoramic torch songs for The Social Registry, set to be released August 4th.

Pitchfork is all up in their bidnezz, but I think they are a less interesting Arvo Part.
