Faux Real Release Sophomore Album Poison Time
Franco-American duo Faux Real are back with their sophomore album Poison Time, out now via b4.
The 11-track record sees brothers Elliott and Virgile Arndt push their mix of infectious pop, surrealism and full-on performance into more personal territory, without losing the chaos and theatricality that made them stand out in the first place.
Alongside the album, the duo have shared a self-directed video for “I Got Mine”, bringing their bizarre visual world to life through physical performance, surreal imagery and plenty of movement. The pair describe themselves as “Method Musicians”, with music, visuals, fashion and performance all feeding into the same creative process.
Recorded at home in Los Angeles, Poison Time moves between crystalline pop hooks, electronic textures and more distorted, experimental moments. The result is a record that feels deliberately unpredictable, but still packed with the hooks and energy that have become synonymous with Faux Real.
The release follows years of touring alongside Wet Leg and Metronomy, festival appearances and growing international attention, with the duo now taking Poison Time on the road across North America, the UK and Europe this autumn.
Their UK/EU run includes Manchester, London, Brussels, Paris, Amsterdam, Cologne, Copenhagen and Berlin, with the London show landing at the ICA on November 14.
The overall design of this game makes it comfortable to explore from the beginning. I liked the simple interface and responsive controls, which helped me understand the gameplay quickly. The different features provide enough variety to keep things interesting. New players can start slowly, read the instructions, and become familiar with the basic mechanics before spending more time playing.
