Following the release of his fourth album, Hymnal, this week, Benoît Pioulard has released the video for album tracks 'Reliquary' and 'Homily' - have a watch above.

'Reliquary' is a pop sketch, built around ringing Spanish guitar and close-sounding submerged rhythms, over which Thomas Meluch intones his vaguely unnerving vocals, lending the track the shadowy, gothic resonance of the European cathedrals that gave inspiration to the album. A late highlight is the inclusion of 'Homily', a postscript echoing 'Reliquary' with arpeggiated keys wavering over Meluch's favoured drone sounds, matched to almost-hidden footage of waves crashing, seeping through at the bottom of the screen.

Hymnal is out through ace Chicago independent label Kranky, who are celebrating their 20th anniversary this year; get hold of the album via their store here.
