New: Charlotte Gainsbourg - Terrible Angels


A new single from Charlotte Gainsbourg ahead of the release of her new album.

Terrible Angels comes as part of an EP that comes out on September 6, with the double album Stage Whisper coming out on November 8.

It's quite different from her most recent release Mémoir, which came out as a limited edition single earlier this year for Record Store Day, written by Conor O'Brien of Villagers.

Terrible Angels was written and produced by Beck, who collaborated with Charlotte on her IRM album. It sounds more Goldfrapp than some of her more laid back work, and for a track that was apparently an outtake it certainly stands up well beside her other work.

Stage Whisper will include seven previously unreleased studio recordings and 11 live tracks, the studio material consisting mostly of material recorded during the sessions for her 2010 IRM album.

The video is directed by Nathalie Canguilhem, who has worked with Charlotte before on her video for The Songs We Sing as well as with Uffie, David Guetta and St Germain.
