Talk to any true head of Montreal’s music scene and you quickly learn that there is a largely under-documented, experimental, dissonant, and costume-laden rock lineage from Montreal and Quebec that came long before Khn and Klek Poitrine.
“Angine de Poitrine come from Saguenay, which is like six hours out of Montreal, and it had its own universe back when Montreal was doing its own weird thing in the 80s and 90s,” says Roy Vucino, a musician who now plays in PyPy, The Fleeting Light of Love and Grief, and his experimental hip-hop project, Brakhage. In his mind, the Quebec-born technical thrash metal band, Voïvod, is the group that influenced Angine de Poitrine musically, he says.
