NON PLUS TEMPS - Conditional Bunker LP

Limited edition of 250 copies.

Highly recommended.

Non Plus Temps are a bay area ensemble whose core members you'll also find in fine bands such as Famous Mammals, Naked Roommate and Preening.

Tail waggers all, but bunched together here, they spray a hybrid snork like few others. The first LP, 'Desire Choir' from 2022, was an infectious hopper of left field dub and etcetera that made it difficult to stay still.

And 'Conditional Bunker' their followup 2nd effort, is an even more demanding dinger than the debut. And as is their want, NPT's song catalog reflects a wide range of structures: the yarp familia via the Canterbury cabal, reverberating chasons ala Family Fodder, hints of Frank Chickens Enka scramble, Laughing Clowns horn-swoggle + all that is worth noting from an appreciation of the On-U Sound and Y Records imprints.

I mean, what else is there to say? It's a platter of unctuous sonority, deserving of a galaxy''s worth of Michelin stars. Or in the parlance of your mom, "Fuck art, let's dance". It's win/win either way.
