is feckin immense, totally immerse you into the dust sidestreet ofthe congo.
From the onset with the funky guitar and then the heavily distorted guitar over it it sounded convoluted but worked incredibly well.
The vid was also great, as it seemed you had an inside look at their world.
All in all will be digging further from this artist (which I could understand french).
will edit this after I check out the next vid

Glad you enjoyed it! It's great isn't it? I had only discovered this artist a couple of months back. I heard this track on a random music blog and fell in love with it. The distorted sounds is probably what did it for me. I want one of those skeleton suits as well.
