PIANO MAGIC - Incurable

---

World-exclusive to Important Records, a new 4 track EP
of brand new material from London's Piano Magic. In
stark contrast to last winter's Opencast Heart EP
(also on Important), Incurable
brings to mind the mid-80's 4AD Records ethereal
romanticism of This Mortal Coil, Cocteau Twins and
Dead Can Dance. It's a glacially produced, though
spiritually warm, set of songs which evoke beautiful,
though bleak, European Winter landscapes, lost causes
and broken hearts. Incurable features guest vocals
from Angele David-Guillou of Klima, recently signed to
the esteemed Peacefrog label (Jose Gonzalez, Nouvelle
Vague) and who is currently recording her debut album
with producer Guy Fixsen (Laika, My Bloody Valentine).

Piano Magic are a living advertisement for the Entente Cordiale. Though based in London, 4 of the group are
French and this intercultural exchange of creative perspectives has resulted in some of the most beautiful, evocative and romantic music of the past 10 years. Though unashamedly "underground" in Britain, Piano Magic have amassed a grandiose, devout following across Europe and the States amongst tortured souls
and lonely librarians. Their most recent album, Disaffected (Darla), received high praise in Mojo,
Uncut and The Wire, amongst others. The group were instrumental in coaxing 70's folk legend, Vashti Bunyan, out of retirement recently and have additionally collaborated with the likes of Low, Cornershop and Tarwater.
