Franco-American brothers Elliott and Virgile Arndt return as Faux Real with their second album Poison Time, due September 4 via b4. Known for idiosyncratic, high-energy live shows combining choreography, showmanship, and practical effects with an intentionally unfiltered physicality, the duo have toured with Wet Leg and Metronomy, played major festival stages, and landed on BBC Radio 6 Music’s Albums of the Year in 2025. Formed between Paris and London, now based in LA, Poison Time pushes further into the tension that defines Faux Real: precise, theatrical, and just out of reach. Presented by Bad Vibrations.
