You cannot escape Angine de Poitrine. You see polka dots every time you scroll. All your muso pals have sent you their KEXP session multiple times over (current view count: 14 million). You see the drummer’s dangling nose in your dreams/nightmares.
The Quebec-via-outer-space duo are one of the most talked-about bands on the planet. Accordingly, their debut UK shows are completely sold out.

It is, quite frankly, an unreasonable amount of hype for a microtonal looping duo that isn’t even on the accessible side of math rock.
