Le Pain is a Los Angeles, California-based indie pop quartet featuring Olivia Babuka Black, Madeline Babuka Black, Scott Rosenthal, and Alan Everhart, Dirge Technique is their sparkling full-length debut album. You’ll hear ten appealing songs with amazing vocals and jangly guitar melodies, a gentle collision of dreamy vintage pop with a girl group feel, French-flavored whimsy, and a few subtle indie rock peppers (it is not without reason that ‘no le pain, no le gain’ is the band’s motto). This record is delicate, disarming, and delightfully offbeat.

Dirge Technique—produced by Joo Joo Ashworth and Scott Rosenthal—is out digitally, on cassette and on vinyl LP, through Slouch Records.
