On the show this time, it’s the dual drummer groove-tronica of French band Meule.
Meule is an atypical power-trio. Instead of the standard drums, bass, guitar — they went with drums, drums, guitar. The two drummers face each other across the stage, and actually share a single kick-drum. The guitar player facing down-stage looks over the top of the two sets. But — very important — there is also a massive modular synth, looming behind and operated by the guitar player. It’s big enough and interesting enough to almost count as a fourth member. The band plays their blend of psych rock / kraut rock / electronica / punk with relentless momentum. Their 6 song LP Meule is available on Bandcamp, and new recordings are imminent.
Recorded 12/07/2022.
