Brian Jonestown Massacre have announced a new album called Musique De Film Imaginé, inspired by French new wave cinema (la Nouvelle Vague).

The '90s psych-gaze outfit will follow up 2014's Revelation on 27 April via a Records.

According to NME, "It pays homage to the great European film directors of the mid-21st Century, such as François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard for an imaginary French film."

Frontman Anton Newcombe said to the magazine, "The album that you are about to hear is a soundtrack, my own creation, a tribute to great directors and filmmakers to an era that now seems to be behind us. Leaving the smart person to care to imagine that this art could now be in the shadow of its former glory. The interesting thing about this project is that the film does not exist either. Even so, I imagined and I realised its soundtrack... Now it's your turn, you are the listener to imagine the film..."
