"Oh squid, with your silky gaze! You, whose soul is inseparable from mine; you, the most beautiful inhabitant of our globe, and who commands an ensemble of four hundred suction cups; why aren't you with me, your mercury belly against my aluminum breast?

Ancient ocean, with its crystal waves, its harmoniously spherical shape, which pleases the serious side of geometry, reminds me only too much of the small eyes of man. The one who believed himself beautiful throughout the centuries. I rather suspect that man believes in his beauty only out of vanity; but that he is not really beautiful and suspects it; for why does he look at the faces of his own kind with so much contempt?" *

The band tells stories rooted in ancient legends, revolutionary outbursts of rage and the madness of our world. They carry the reflections of the sea and the complexity of life. The repertoire pays homage to the beginnings of free jazz and to all musical genres that carried the stories and struggles of their time through their freedoms.

"Your water is bitter, I greet you, old ocean"*

*Lautréamont, Les Chants de Maldoror, 1874
