Comment: it can be seen on the site of Plus Timbre that Italian duo Giuseppe Pascucci, and Vito Pesce did release a couple of albums (Humansaurs, and Nikola, Was Right!) on 3rd of February, 2019. The last mentioned issue can be admitted by straddling on a mindset of electro-acoustic and experimental rock and improvised music. These 6 compositions are imbued with reverberant echoes and abrasive guitar chords and playful guitar patterns (one can hear lots of iterative sounds, droning, and minimal phase shifts from one chord to be transmitted into another one). Both artists employ a guitar and effect devices around it. Otherwise one could think of electronics and synthesisers added to the mix. I can remember for another Italian guitar magician Gaetano Fontanazza whose album The Grandpa Lullabies (2018, Sucu Music) was also treated with guitars only though one can perceive electronic segments within it. In a nutshell, the whole is truly worth to be listened to. What could I add but let's listen to Humansaurs either.
