Les Friction - Dark Matter (2017)

Les Friction is an independent music group led by Helmut Vonlichten, Nihl Finch, and a singer named Paint. Helmut had previously collaborated with his brother Franz Vonlichten in their cinematic music project E.S. Posthumus until Franz's death in May 2010. Les Friction was announced in November 2011, and their self-titled debut album was released the following January. Alternative Rock band Les Friction returns with a brand new album, five years and a half after their self-titled debut.

The new record was released last June 30: titled Dark Matter, it was produced by the band's main man (and true cult hero) Evan Frankfort. Dark Matter is another brilliant, orchestrated, cinematic, alternative pop-rock album, though less pompous and epic than the first one, so that The Spiritual Machines, the other Frankfort's band/project, come to mind when listening.
