“Matryoshka” features the most jarring moment yet in Suiyoubi No Campanella’s career to date. It comes early, when a voice that isn’t KOM_I’s enters, stage right. It comes courtesy of Pablo Padovani of French group Moodoïd (and…I didn’t know this until the video dropped…was part of Melody’s Echo Chamber). But it could have been Hatsune…

Spangle Call Lilli Line announced that they will release a new album in early January, and that comes only a few months before a 20th anniversary tour. “Mio” offers the first listen from that full-length, and finds the group crafting a slow-burning bouncer where there usual subdued…
