This duo kept popping up on my social media feeds. Looked absurd, paid no attention. Then had others tell me I had to check them out. Finally did. Actually kinda blew my mind and really liked it after passing it off as a gimmick. Basically they are part math rock, part microtonal melody, part quirky odd time signatures. Both extremely talented and it shows. Won't be for everyone but there's something about their music that draws you in. I could probably do without their weird fake alien language and antics but it's part of the appeal I guess. And unlike a lot of music today, it's extremely fresh and original.

They just started a US tour and have sold out every show. Playing Stubb's in Austin in October and that show is already pushing $250 to $400 on the second hand market.

Links below to their first KEXP performance that put them on the map.



And their blowup at the Montreal Jazz festival a few weeks ago.

You can search and find a previous thread.

They definitely aren't for me. I don't get the appeal.

I can't deny they're talented, but at the end of the day it just doesn't sound good to me.

I feel the same way whenever someone raves about Captain Beefheart to me.

I can't imagine going to see these guys live. Half the crowd looks bored out of their minds in that video.

Theres a thread where someone called them primus+tool or something. I hear primus, for sure. Tool, not so much. I also don't really like primus, though can acknowledge they are talented.

I think Sarniezz is their best experiment. Very catchy

Apparently they made an impression on me since I remember every thread. The above wasn't even the one I was thinking of.
