Magic Fig share “Flammarion” music video. Just the prog pop that the week called for. RSTB faves Magic Fig stunned on a debut EP last year, and they follow it quickly with the full length for Exploding In Sound. The first single showcased the band’s love of baroque folk, but here they let the Canterbury impulses creep a little closer to the forefront, opening up with a wave of keys that underpin the song’s immersion into the world of French astronomer Camille Flammarion’s metaphysical realms. Featuring a lineup that would’ve hinted at indie pop expectations (feat mems, of The Umbrellas, Whitney’s Playland, Healing Potpourri, and Almond Joy) the band’s Radiophonic revue has come as a welcome surprise over the last couple of years. “Flammarion” surfs the Broadcast to Bundles-era Soft Machine pipeline, a kaleidoscope of colors that’s as supple as it is psychedelic. The new single comes complete with a fizzing green screen vid courtesy of Michael Cruz that embraces the song’s lycergic flicker. The new single opens up the band’s debut LP, Valerian Tea, out November 21st from Exploding In Sound.
