Microtonal cardboard duo Angine de Poitrine have released their eagerly awaited new album, Vol. II. The album stretches the boundaries of Angine de Poitrine’s sound with even bolder, more dynamic structures. Once again, three essential forces fuel the duo’s music: acid techno, disco, and rock. A brisk, high-voltage album, Vol. II includes the acclaimed single, “Fabienk,” which, true to the group’s style, revolves around a single microtonal guitar loop that repeats, doubles, and evolves through a groove that is both insistent and liberating.
PURCHASE/STREAM VOL. II
Having spent much of the past two years in the eye of an ever-growing storm of enthusiasm from audiences and critics thanks to their asymmetrical, dissonant music and electrifying performances, including a stunning Live on KEXP session that has quickly amassed over 6.9M views and counting, the band recently announced a series of upcoming North American live dates. The tour includes debut performances in a number of US cities. Newly announced dates include shows at Los Angeles, CA’s Teragram Ballroom (August 18), San Francisco, CA’s The Independent (August 19), Portland, OR – Aladdin Theater (August 21), Washington, DC’s The Atlantis (September 15), and Philadelphia, PA’s Underground Arts (September 16). The new dates join an eventful international live schedule that already includes a pair of sold-out performances at New York City’s Le Poisson Rouge (September 9-10), along with sold-out headline dates, festival performances, and more in both Canada and Europe.

Hailed by The Guardian for their “hypnotic riffs and grooves, whose proggy time shifts are all in astonishing lockstep, making this as much party music as it is prog,” the Mantra-Rock Dada Pythagorean-Cubist Orchestra known as Angine de Poitrine gaze in wonder at hot dogs, pyramids, and rock music in all its glorious excess. In just two years, time-traveling space-voyagers Khn de Poitrine (microtonal guitars, vocals) and Klek de Poitrine (percussion, vocals) have surpassed the earthly rock stars they once emulated, earning critical acclaim, millions of streams, and countless new fans worldwide. Structured around a dynamic interplay of adding and removing sound patterns in constant metamorphosis, Angine de Poitrine’s repertoire makes hearts race and bodies move with ecstatic abandon. Through tight, pulsing drum grooves and intricate tangles of double-neck microtonal guitar, the noble brothers summon swirling vortices of hypnotic sound and vision.
