Angine de Poitrine

Angine de Poitrine land at The Prospect Building in Bristol on 13 October 2026. The Quebec duo of Klek and Khn de Poitrine push rock toward its edges with an instrumental setup that trades vocals for intricate patterns and sharp rhythmic turns. Their stage language is built on tight, pulsing drum grooves and double‑neck microtonal guitar, where asymmetry and measured dissonance shape the flow. Each piece grows through the accumulation and withdrawal of short motifs, creating a steady sense of motion that keeps the body engaged while the ear chases shifting details.

Without lyrics to anchor the hooks, the focus sits on movement, variation and rhythmic displacement. Drums stay dry and precise, guitar and bass lines bend into microtonal colours, and chromatic phrases thread discreet tension through structures that rarely settle into straight lines. The result sits between experimental rock, math rock and angular post‑punk, with a repetitive, machine‑like drive close to certain techno principles.

If your shelves lean toward King Gizzard, Crack Cloud, Trans Am, Primus, Tortoise, Viagra Boys, Dry Cleaning, Mandy Indiana, Chat Pile, Henge, Snooper or Getdown Services, this one speaks the same language—only with its own microtonal accent.
