This passed me by until now:

Different bassist (Basile Mouton), different vocalist (Sebastien Rocquefelte), no horns this time. Not bought this or found any clips yet, but the album is on Spotify and I have listened to a few tracks. I'm sad for the loss of the horns, which I felt added a lot. I'm happy for the loss of Onan who just annoyed me (until I downloaded the instrumental version of the album and shelved my CD). The new vocalist mixes trad Zeuhl style singing with semi-spoken word passages in English and even some mad shouty / screamy sections that would make Klaus Blasquiz smile. I think he's pretty good.

The very short take, based on a superficial listen, is that this is like One Shot with male vox. Whether you like it will depend on your attitude to the vox, which are prominent. I like it.
