The Oedipus Project
Sadly, SVIIB will be the final album from School of Seven Bells, a band I was so fond of.
What began as a trio with twin sisters Alejandra and Claudia Deheza and Benjamin Curtis, transformed into a duo when Claudia left in 2010.
Tragically Benjamin died of lymphoma in 2013.
SVIIB is the abbreviation for School of Seven Bells and Curtis did complete his parts before becoming sick.
“Open Your Eyes” from the album coming next month.
“Open Your Eyes”
Identical twin sister Claudia Deheza has left the band but Alejandra carries on with Benjamin Curtis, now as a handsome duo, known as School of Seven Bells.
Ghostory, their third album, comes out next week.
“The Night” is the luscious first track on the album.
School of Seven Bells is a three-piece New York band consisting of Benjamin Curtis (formerly of Secret Machines) and identical twins Alejandra and Claudia Deheza (ex of On!Air!Library!). They amusingly claim to take their name from a mythical South American school for pickpockets. From their forthcoming Disconnect From Desire album, “Babelonia” has such an infectious lilt and is the Song of the Day.
