Bye Bye Tsunami – the Meth-Metal, Post-Mental, Future Jazz trio from planet 無 – presents a new video for “Overture / Breakfast,” which opens their new “Eating” EP, nearing release on Nefarious Industries.
Bye Bye Tsunami is a group of individuals who thrive in uncertainty and find delight in the entropy of noise. Based in Copenhagen, Denmark (while visiting our planet), the trio employs disrupted rhythms, unique self-built futuristic wind instruments, and heartbreaking cyborg screams to expand the musical language beyond its wildest horizons.
With their second EP, “Eating,” the band promises massive Meth-Metal beats, dehumanized hopeless voices, eclectic noisy influences, glitchy electronics, and various other innovative elements, all appropriately complimented with exclusive artwork created by illustrator Frances Lili Farmer. The futuristic perspectives and hidden mystical layers contained within this peculiar narrative explore a realm of absurd hypothetical faraway planets, weaving a subtle double meaning that surprisingly mirrors the realities and issues of our times.
In this work Bye Bye Tsunami delves deeper into their distinctive sound signature anchored by the Flaubosax. By generating new soundscapes through a personal asymmetrical tonal system and intertwining them with intricate and powerful drum rhythms, they guide the music through disrupted forms and post-industrial spiritual textures. In a collaborative endeavor for this project, the band has joined forces with other avant-garde artists proficient in vocals, guitar, electronics, and visual arts. This synergy of talents results in a truly unique audiovisual package, setting the stage for a captivating and boundary-pushing musical experience.
Embodied by Nathan L. (flaubosax, flute, electronics), Søren Høi (drums) and Uldis Vitol (bass), Bye Bye Tsunami infuses guest guitar from Manlio Maresca on one song, and guest vocals from the likes of Sigurd Neimann, Francesco Colocci, Neker and Sabiwa throughout the record. “Eating” was mixed and mastered by Marco Colocci and features art by Frances Lili Farmer, with the design/layout handled by Yunyen Chuang.
With the “Overture / Breakfast” video, the trio collectively offers: “This is the inaugural anthem for the 3 Moons Celebration of the Dog-Gods on Planet WU無; the elite partake in the consumption of the forbidden fruit in front of the entire populace, while the monks intone a propitiatory chant for a prosperous new life-cycle. The lyrics of the chant ‘Eating Pussy For Breakfast’ were initially supposed to be the title of the EP, although we later opted to change that for commercial reasons. This sentence was whispered into L.’s ears during a night of insomnia. Later that morning, he did not understand the meaning of his vision until he came across Frances Lili Farmer’s work. Everything finally made sense, pushing our hero to pursue the realization of this masterpiece.”
Bye Bye Tsunami’s “Eating” will be available on audio cassette and digitally on October 04, 2024. Scope the “Overture / Breakfast” video alongside the “Eating” video and preorders at Nefarious Industries HERE.
