Okay so I put off listening to these guys because I thought they were just overhyped mathrock slop but then I heard Yor Zarad earlier and holy shit this is fucking amazing. I legitimately have not heard a band play like this from this decade or even the 2010s for that matter.
Also fun fact, Google has an easter egg if you search up the band name, it puts polka-dots all over your screen in the style of the band.

>>129989075
harmonically boring and repetitive desu. I want to like them but the real reason they are getting attention is the stupid outfits. nobody would be interested in hearing a rhythm section wank around for 6 minutes otherwise, microtones or not. they can definitely play, they should just be part of a full band instead of this shart.

without the costume gimmick they would be completely irrelevant

Growing tired of these safequirky acts
>>
>>129990605
but going by the song linked itt angine de poitrine might benefit from one, usually even in the absence of a singer some other instrument will take the lead melody but being a duo seems to limit adp in that regard, or the rhythm section itself would have to move more to get the same effect
it's still pretty good imo

It worked for KISS, didn't it?

>>129990699
sick digits, I think their lead majority of the time pretty much takes the place of vocals, if I were them I might just add some more background vocal harmony but I really don't think their sound is lacking or missing anything its more full than a lot of 3 pieces I've heard

list of bands/artists that only got popular because of a gimmick, but are still praised (by most) for being great musicians:

>mf doom
>talking heads

then again, maybe that's exactly the issue: they're too popular. can't enjoy popular things, that'll make you suuuuuper boring

I'll be honest, anon. I didn't think I was going to like these guys very much, but they drive some crazy hard grooves. It's great instrument work done to a wacky clown show. I'd buy a ticket.
>>
Why cant they play music without costumes?
>>
To add some more: I haven't heard a band in a long time able to do riffs. The microtonal gimmick is doing work. In addition to their clown act, the running up and down the scales is really driving the hype. A lot of bands are just chords, vocals and some bass.

>I was about to make a thread about them because W T F
this is the key. they realized that the worst thing that would happen if they were blatantly shilled everywhere is people would notice and complain, thereby creating more controversy and clicks. that combined with the distinctive quirk chungus aesthetic means anybody who follows any kind of music content is going to see people arguing about them and probably listen to a song or two just to know what people are talking about. using mass email bots to get youtubers to make videos about them didn't hurt either.

This thread is classic /mu/ contrarianism. I can speak for us all when I say, deep down, we all appreciate this band and the music they play, it’s enjoyable and fun as is their aesthetic. However, we here at /mu/ resent and reject the average person just now finding out about microtones and prog rock and bands with aesthetic gimmicks, and that’s where the sore spot is coming from.

There is a song structure, it’s good for what it is. Is it something I or most people would listen to everyday, maybe not, but it’s fun listen to visit every once and a while, and as other anons have said, definitely seems like a fun show to attend. I welcome them to the popular culture, and also let me re iterate too, it’s good to have a band that actually does live music performance, which more tha we get from most major performing artists these days

even fucking RICK BEATO shilling for the band doesn't feel organic to me

Why is the french shit always so performatively fruity? I wanted to avoid listening because it looks gay. Listened to parts of it and yep it sounds kinda gay, except the drums. Respect to the drummer, almost reminds me of Metallica somehow.

Québécois isn't French. We are removed from the rest of France by hundreds of years. Very little of Québec culture has anything in common with French culture. Plus, most of our ancestors came from regions outside of Paris like Gascogne and Bretagne.
>>
It's interesting visually arresting music that captures attention swiftly.

The microtonal elements are also a slap in the face and insist you pay attention.

This is music designed to trap doom scrollers for 5 minutes and illicit curiousity.

The music itself gets boring pretty quickly if you listen to an album but it was designed for shorts and tiktok.

That's what those news were for me. I guess, that's what expectations are in capitalism. Up and down, up and down, played like a microtonal fiddle.

So fucking fatigued with the endless barrage of inauthentically shilled bands on the social media algorithms. Just before I felt like the Geese hype was dying down, we get hit with these retards. For those who are legit mathrock dorks, this shit fucking sucks in comparison to 99% of other mathrock artists. Sure they have cool time signature changes and polyrhythms, but there is absolutely zero melodic or human-sounding element to this which makes it fucking annoying to listen to. Its like when they were trying to come up with a concept for the band they were like, "lets just be as gimmicky as possible with zero concept". You can pull off a two-piece mathrock project, but you're going to have to incorporate some impressive level of technical guitar playing or heavier playing style to make it sound palatable. Think of Hella or Floral. To make it even more irritating, we all have to hear normies talk about how they found these guys on their timeline and how, "WOW THEY'RE PLAYING MICROTONAL GUITARS!!! THATS CRAZY!! DID YOU KNOW THAT THEY USE THAT IN MIDDLE EASTERN MUSIC?!?
" all after we experienced a decade of endless King Gizzard records.

I'll give this gimmicky band no more than a single year before everyone forgets about them.

The Residents are a more interesting project to me and their aesthetics get more garish than Angine's at many places, but also more thought out in others.
I think The Residents' long sustained cult status compared to Angine's trendy blow-up tell me just enough about both bands. I don't expect Angine to reach such a legendary status or to sustain its reputation for so long but that's an unfair comparison, we're talking about The Residents here.
>>130002124
Clown core on the other hand is too pedestrian, their lack of restraint makes for really predictable and safe music in spite of its colourful presentation but yeah he did put his penis on the keys so it's better than Angine.
>>130008849
Yeah I suspect that this band has been propelled to popularity by an entity similar to Geese's marketing thingy, but to be fair to Geese, whom I don't enjoy at all, their music is mature and has artistic merit, while Angine de Poitrine is a shoddy attempt at provocation that didn't provoke anyone (other than me) or the work of genuinely naive people.

Bro I’ve been trying to find the album for the last year. Listened to it a few years ago and completely forgot the name. Also, part of the reason why I’m so cynical towards Angine de Poitrine is because compared to a band like Sajjanu or even Hella they absolutely fucking suck and yet somehow get a massive, inauthentic explosion of airtime while all these incredible bands will get zero recognition. I feel the same way about artists like Yvette Young where the criticism is how she is popular literally just because “awww sooo cuuuute, an Asian girl mathrock guitarist”. Everything she writes sounds completely mediocre, cliche, and uninspired with not much impressive technical skill, and yet again she sucks up all the air in the room while bands that are actually incredible get zero recognition
