The Darkening Green
●

Despite choosing a name that makes them sound like an ear-splitting techno ensemble well appreciated on the Brixton squat rave circuit, boy/girl duo Plantagenet 3 actually make gentle and minimal, not-quite-post-rock type instrumental music, bringing to mind Spaghetti Westerns and Joe Meek, with added drum machine. Today’s MPfree is their first release since 2011’s Modern Myths and Fairy Tales album.
