Angine De Poitrine

Flanging_Fred

If you woke up this morning thinking that you could really do with listening to some polka-dot alien double neck microtonal looping groovy madness, then you’re in luck.

Bonkers and utterly brilliant.

My guess is they are two 60-year old blokes?

Drummer could be, guitarist has far too good balance & timing

Intriguing band. On BandCamp as La Poexe but with releases under the names Poex, La Poêsse and La Poëysce.

And then Angine. And finally Angine dePoitrine ('Chest Pain').

No - they're doing music.

So pushed at me on social media (algorithm decided I like this kind of thing I guess) that I very quickly backed away. Prior to that it was the The Molotovs, punky little souls with apparently a huge financial backing. 
I'm probably delusional to think that I have discovered music I like in a purer way and am not just a victim of capitalism and tech giants but still it seems distasteful to me in some way.

I just saw the video posted on here (twice!) as don't follow social media and block any algorithmic attempts to shove stuff in front of my eyes (on YouTube for example) for the sake of my mental health.

But this did have the feel of some kind of viral 'buzz' about it. I'm intrigued to find out they've been together under some name or other for well over a decade. It's the age old story of working for years to become an 'overnight success'.

Except these days, they'll probably sink into obscurity again in a week or two.

Normally I'd agree, but a couple of anarcho-looking punk types from a Quebecois avant-garde art scene that have been playing unusual music together for over a decade and have recently decided to dress up like aliens aren't in any way the ones at fault for being algorithmically inserted into your feeds.

They're not as good without the masks.
Well, they are, but I'm slightly less invested!

This came up in my feed on YT the other day. 

It's very French.

Jeez, the camera work in that clip absolutely does my head in, I had to turn it off. I preferred the clip of them with the silly masks on, musically and otherwise.

I liked the comment

"This makes Primus sound like The Eagles"

Crazy musicianship and very inventive. Must learn some of this for the next time I drop by Guitar Guitar on a Saturday afternoon...

I think the thing I loved the most about the comments was that they were almost overwhelmingly positive and celebratory (I darent look again just in case).

It was like for one fleeting moment these two creatures just appeared out of nowhere to remind us all that there is a better way.

Honestly, I must be getting old because I genuinely found the response quite moving.

Crap! They announced a UK tour and the London show sold out within 24 hours.

Stuckfast

Leeds show is sold out too. Bah.
