Chateau de la Maladie

Chateau de la Maladie is the music-related pseudonym of Michael Finger and Micheal Carroll. It explores minimalism, low-volume noise, and lo-fi rock. Our work ranges from loosely structured textural pieces to fairly straight forward songs. We began working together in the summer of 2005 amid a storm of cicadas and confusion. Our first dedicated recording sessions occurred primarily in the following September and October, leading to eight tracks. These tracks were supplemented with four others over the course of 2008, forming the basis of what (whenever released) should be a first "album." Simultaneously, we constructed the skeleton of a second series, which we continue to develop.
