Oh hi there, you fuzzy little man peach. I know what you're thinking right now; "Here comes Old Gregg, he's a scaly manfish..." But you don't know me. You don't know what I've got. I got something to show you. I'M OLD GREEEEEEEEEEGG!
And over to something quite similar, the Canadian band Milanku. Not that they're having seaweed hair and manginas, but you don't really know what to expect from these guys. First of all, they sing in French, which some Canadians do, but you still can't figure out what they're singing about. Second of all, when you're sitting there and are listening to the album, you will kind of get the feeling of a post-hardcore version of Mogwai. Then all of a sudden there is VOCALS. What the hell? Oh, it was probably just on this song... But wait, there's MORE in the other songs. They have a very strange way of presenting the vocals. They include just a little bit of vocals in the very end of the song. Probably so the ones who think instrumental bands are really boring to listen to will stand this album.
And they sure do got the funk.
Song(s) you should listen to: Mépris is the best one in my opinion. It starts of pretty generic and slow, but about 2.12 minutes into the song, the guitar riff of heaven folds out like a daisy flower.
