Angine de Poitrine Announce New Album ‘Vol. II’ And Sold-Out UK Debut Tour

by | Mar 27, 2026

French Canadian experimental duo Angine de Poitrine have unveiled details of their eagerly anticipated new album Vol. II, set for release on 3rd April 2026, alongside news of a completely sold-out debut UK tour this May.

The mysterious “microtonal cardboard duo” – known only as Khn de Poitrine and Klek de Poitrine – have rapidly built a cult following over the past two years, driven by their hypnotic, mathematically precise sound and electrifying live performances. Their rise has been fuelled in part by a widely viewed live session with KEXP, which has introduced millions to their boundary-pushing approach.

Vol. II marks the next chapter in the duo’s evolution, expanding their signature sound into even more dynamic and unpredictable territory. Built around intricate microtonal guitar loops and tightly interwoven rhythms, the album promises a high-voltage listening experience that blurs the line between experimental composition and visceral, body-moving grooves. Lead single Fabienk offers a taste of what’s to come, looping and mutating around a single motif that gradually unfolds into something both hypnotic and euphoric.

The release arrives amid a whirlwind period for the band, who have spent much of the past two years performing to growing audiences across Europe and North America. Their upcoming UK shows will mark a significant milestone, with sold-out performances in London, Bristol and Leeds highlighting the scale of anticipation surrounding their first visit to British shores.

Beyond their headline dates, Angine de Poitrine will also make their UK festival debut at The Great Escape this May, before returning later in the year for a slot at End Of The Road Festival.

Remaining deliberately anonymous, the duo continue to lean into the mythology surrounding the project, framing their music as a constantly shifting sonic experiment. With Vol. II, they further cement their reputation as one of the most intriguing and unconventional acts operating in the global underground.

Garbage @ Roundhouse (Kalpesh Patel)

Garbage Celebrate Three Decades Of Defiance At London’s Roundhouse

Thirty years into a career built on challenging convention, Garbage arrive at London’s Roundhouse looking anything but content to trade on nostalgia. Despite three decades of touring the capital, tonight marks the band’s first appearance at the iconic Camden venue, and from the moment Shirley Manson, Duke Erikson, Steve Marker, Butch Vig and touring bassist Nicole Fiorentino step onto the stage, they perform with the urgency of a band still determined to push forwards rather than look back.

Full Circle At O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire: Lifehouse Return To London In Intimate Acoustic Triumph

There are gigs that simply entertain, and then there are gigs that transport you. Lifehouse’s long-overdue return to London at O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire is very much the latter. Eleven years since their last visit to the capital, Jason Wade and longtime guitarist Steve Stout strip everything back for the second of two London acoustic shows—following the previous evening’s performance at nearby Bush Hall—and in doing so remind a packed Shepherd’s Bush Empire exactly why these songs have endured for a quarter of a century.

Metallica @ London Stadium (Neil Lupin)

Metallica Double Up For A No Repeat Weekend At London Stadium

It’s the first weekend in July and The Metal has taken over Westfield Stratford. Friday evening shoppers mingle with sweaty black clad rockers, because Metallica have brought their No Repeat Weekend M72 tour to this corner of East London. Now into it’s fourth year, the final weekend of this tour will see the metal giants play two completely different sets over Friday and Sunday night at London Stadium — an immense treat for the diehards, and introducing some deeper cuts for the casuals, providing something for everyone.

Duran Duran @ BST Hyde Park 2026 (Sienna Lorraine Gray)

Duran Duran Crown A Sun-Soaked Day Of Pop Royalty At BST Hyde Park 2026

It was yet another warm, sunny London day, the start of the country’s next heatwave, as thousands descended on Hyde Park for the final day of the second BST Hyde Park weekend of 2026. There was another event looming over the evening too: England’s World Cup Round of 16 clash with Mexico, kicking off at the decidedly unsociable hour of 1am. Football could wait though. Sunday belonged to disco legends, glam-pop icons and one of Britain’s most enduring bands as Duran Duran headlined a day that effortlessly balanced nostalgia with timeless musicianship.

Arriving ahead of the band’s eagerly anticipated new album on 14th August, the track follows the anthemic lead single Man In The Arena and continues to showcase a record that promises to balance heartfelt storytelling with the arena-sized choruses that have become synonymous with The Script throughout their career.
