Album Notes & Community Reviews

Marking a radical departure from their dark, Zeuhl-influenced origins, 'Swi脽 Chalet' finds the Belgian collective diving headfirst into quirky, rhythmically complex new wave. Pascale Son's deadpan, highly stylized vocals guide the ensemble through eccentric pop structures heavily accented by reggae and avant-garde off-beats. It stands as a wildly eclectic, deeply humorous pivot for the experimental outfit.
