Futuro Pelo – Sketches of Loss (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Benjamin Sportès has been a restless force in European alternative music for over four decades, and Futuro Pelo has always been his most personal outlet. Sketches of Loss arrives as genuine document of grief processed through sound, the kind of record that could only come from someone who has lived enough to mean every note. Fourteen tracks, almost nothing wasted.
Futuro Pelo: The Visceral Return of Benjamin SportèsForget the labels. Futuro Pelo is the radical, unfiltered project of Benjamin Sportès. A veteran of the alternative scene since 1983 and a founding member of the legendary Sporto Kantes, Sportès has traded the stages of Paris for a brutalist studio in Brussels to write his most raw chapter yet.His upcoming album, Sketches of Loss (Spring 2026, EXAG' Records), is a Molotov cocktail of rock'n'roll, garage, and electro-punk. Born from a "visceral need" to perform following a year of profound personal loss, the record is a minimalist, 14-track exutoire. It strips music down to it's primal bones: one voice, one guitar, and a steady drum loop.Drawing on the urgency of The Gun Club and the theatricality of John Maus, Futuro Pelo's new era is a testament to fierce resilience-a "temporal face-off" between his 24-year-old self and the man he is today.
