Band: ANGINE DE POITRINE

French for angina pectoris. A severe pain in
the chest and left arm, caused by heart disease.

Who: Mysterious, experimental Canadian duo featuring (cuckoo aliases)
Khn de Poitrine (guitar/bass instruments) and Klek de Poitrine (drums)

Album: VOL. II

Pitchfork says:“On the heels of viral success, the anonymous, polka-dotted math-punk
duo takes the throne as the world’s weirdest party band. Angine de Poitrine are the most thrilling Canadian mystery since David Cronenberg’s The Shrouds.

They make weirdly danceable math-rock for muffled drums and comically fretted
microtonal guitar. Vol. II is a powerful argument that we should all start seeing spots.

Album artwork

TUTV: I just discovered this sensational 2-piece via multiple reviews of their 2nd LP
on music websites. The first thing that attracted me was (of course) their wacky outfits, and I thought that this was just another kind of gimmick act making cheapjack music.

Not!

They move ‘n’ groove with a hair-raising and incessantly funk panache for 37 minutes propelled by authoritative bass and drums firepower, while knife-edged guitar riffs
zigzag between the tireless rhythm section velocity.

At times, they sound as if bass-funk-punk legends Gang Of Four and Devo are on
mind-bending drugs. Except for some background screeches on the first 2 tracks,
the record is fully instrumental.

Vol.II is not an arty-farty experimental affair, rather an extraordinary and explosive sonic
tour de force. And, yes, for some inexplicable reason, their outfits fit the sonic turbulence. If you haven’t discovered them yet, this is your chance to do so.
