Disconnect From Desire

Released

The second School of Seven Bells album was the last to feature both Deheza sisters as Claudia left the group after an initial tour for it, but 2010’s Disconnect From Desire was a remarkable way to showcase their musical partnership with Benjamin Curtis, peeling off one astonishing song after another. The sleek shoegaze-meets-New Order feeling of Alpinisms hit new heights on songs like “Windstorm” and “Bye Bye Bye” – “Joviann” itself practically quotes Chapterhouse’s “Breather” – while “I L U” became their standard of heartbreak and memory.
