The band describes their music as \u201c<em>the sound of the world as it truly is; an unruly and unforgettable sonic explosion created by the intersection of wayward travellers<\/em>.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trio has recently unveiled \u201cLe repas du cobra\u201d (\u201cthe cobra\u2019s meal\u201d), an experimental track with a particularly heavy atmosphere. &#8220;<em>Kaito got in front of the mic and recorded a long vocal in one improvised take, over an abstract electronic base<\/em>\u201d, the band explains. \u201c<em>Benjamin then played with the material of Kaito&#8217;s voice in many ways, as if Kaito had been singing in a distorted ice palace. The text is about the wisdom of animals, and therefore probably about ours too.
