Steve Jansen has a new band and album.

 

just arrived yesterday - slow burning songs, very well recorded, lead singer sounds like............David Sylvia’s with a deeper voice

Lol I've ended ordering the album on vinyl as well.

[cafe67]

One of his lesser known albums. Ambient stuff, probably one for the completists.

David Sylvian ‎– Alchemy - An Index Of Possibilities  2019 reissue of the 1985 release.  Not what I expected - Jansen's drums and percussion is pretty special.   not sure i have spent a better $20 for some time.
