SKU
Via 015
You all know Vialka, right? Vialka are a French duo of Eric Boros (baritone guitar and voice) and Marylise Frechevile (drums and voice) are an exuberant duo who fill a lot of musical space with just baritone guitar & voice and drums and voice. If I had to compare it something, it reminds me a bit of a highly talented punk-rock duo playing the songbook of the earliest works by Etron Fou.
This groovy 'objet' is "a posh 54 page libretto with hand-bound and embossed cardboard and fabric cover" and we only have a small handful of them and it's filled with interesting art and photos.
