Peste by Belly of Paris

Belly of Paris are an Anglo-Indo-Argentine-Palestinian-Hungarian band formed by musician Daniel Cochran after moving from the UK to Bahrain.

Peste is an album about the ambitious and the resigned; the avaricious and the meek. With imagined characters and themes drawn from history and literature, this is a fatalistic album reflecting uncertain times, driven by Nigo's bright brass and Prest’s scuzzy tones, marshalled by Sharma and Villarroel, and crafted by Sharabi's soft soprano and Cochran's rich, world-weary baritone.
