Fenn O’Berg is the turducken of Christian Fennesz, Jim O’Rourke, and Peter Rehberg, and they’ll be releasing a new double LP of their 2010 Japan tour on Editions Mego in April. The LP, entitled In Hell (which may or may not be a comment on their opinion of Japan), is “maintaining the sophistication of the In Stereo sessions and tour” but also “hark back to some classic 20th Century Fenn O’Berg fare, complete with the odd cheeky samples,” according to the press release.
This will be their first release in two years after In Stereo, which was their first release in eight years after The Return of Fenn O’Berg (#54 on our decade list), which was their first release in three years after The Magic Sound of Fenn O’Berg. That now makes four records in 13 years. Math. The improvisational puter-music is due out April 10 and is available for pre-order now.

01. Christian Rocks
