A year and a half ago, fuzz-pop trio School of Seven Bells released “Alpinisms” and asked listeners to climb the hazy heights with them. Which we were happy to. Now Benjamin Curtis, the guitarist in the identical twin sandwich of Alejandra and Claudia Deheza, is back, having produced a sophomore album “Disconnect From Desire” (due July 13 on Vagrant/Ghostly International). The single “Windstorm” came out digitally this week, and SVIIB also has unveiled  the lovely, haunting teaser track “Babelonia.” They’ve tweaked the lineup too; when they debut new material in earnest tonight in L.A., SVIIB will have a live drummer.
