Varsovie, a French post-punk duo from Grenoble active since 2005, has released the first single from their sixth album “Notes pour plus tard,” due October 16, 2026 on Icy Cold Records. The track, “Treize Collines” (Thirteen Hills), references Paris’s thirteen hills while subtly invoking the November 13, 2015 terrorist attacks through layered, evocative lyrics addressing collective trauma. The composition features characteristic post-punk elements: precise, driving drums, anxious basslines, angular serrated guitars, and spoken vocals shifting to anguished wails amid chaotic emotional surges. The accompanying official video by Greek artist Sotiris Lamprou captures the duo performing through dense fog and darkness, with strobing tree-lined imagery synchronized to the track’s urgent, discordant aesthetic.
