News: Peculate releases 3-part single!

by Dæv Tremblay


It’s with a totally immature giggle (French people will understand, although it’s definitely no laughing matter), that I have the honour to report that Peculate released their first single from their upcoming album, and it’s a 3-part epic entitled Bouazizi!

Advertised as very different from their “standard” material, I have to say they didn’t lie! Peculate‘s traditional hectic spazz-djent is now out of the door to give way to what are usually only “influences”.

With such a stellar lineup, we are to expect stellar musicianship and song construction. But what the first single Carbon Phrases let us hear is embarrassingly underwhelming. It’s certainly not “the World’s most extreme” at what they do, and it doesn’t sound … Read more

by Dæv Tremblay

Here it is! The glitchy, catty, spacey music video for the first music piece from Pryapisme‘s new EP, Futurologie. This one is Part IV, and there’s only one thing I must say: it’s too short! It’s too damn short!

In other words, I can’t wait February 9th, when this bad boy comes out. Pre-order the EP now here!… Read more
