Spam emails set to music.
We get so many of these pests that we don’t really see them anymore. Yet, some of them are so absurdly trite they hold a poetic charge. What? Spam emails. CE François Couture decided to set to music some of these pathetic scam attempts, these flagrant failures at communicating. Ten tracks ranging from post-rock to rock-in-opposition, electro-pop-noire, and juxtapositions of free improvisations and field recordings. “Lyrics” included.
