With ‘Les Châteaux Faibles’, Swiss trio Alice unveils the title track from their upcoming third album, a haunting, playful meditation on fragility and quiet strength. Rooted in art-pop, experimental folk, and musique concrete, the track captures Alice’s signature blend of vocal harmonies and sonic inventiveness, gently subverting French folk tradition with eerie synths, clipped textures, and choral layers that feel as tender as they are defiant.

Yvonne and Lisa Harder (mother and daughter), alongside Sarah André, continue their mission to reshape folklore for modern times. Their voices, entwined like a spell, tell of structures, emotional, communal, even political, that appear fragile yet endure. The production is sparse but alive: crackling electronics pulse beneath organic textures, while the lyrics (in French) thread poetic vulnerability through each phrase.

Premiering ahead of the album Châteaux Faibles (due July 25th), this track teases a record likely to be as whimsical as it is weighty. For those drawn to the crossroads of folk and avant-garde, ‘Les Châteaux Faibles’ is a subtle yet commanding invitation into Alice’s fractured fairytale world.
