Å - À Toute Vapeur À Travers La Boue Détruisez Le Plus Possible Ne Résistera Dans Les Institutions Que Ce Qui Est Fondamentalement Bon

Review by Aolani Mohana

Å's latest album, À Toute Vapeur À Travers La Boue Détruisez Le Plus Possible Ne Résistera Dans Les Institutions Que Ce Qui Est Fondamentalement Bon, is a powerful and thought-provoking work of art. The album's title translates to "Full Steam Ahead Through the Mud Destroy as Much as Possible Only What Is Fundamentally Good Will Resist in Institutions," and this sentiment is reflected in the music itself.

The album is a blend of experimental rock, noise, and industrial music, with Å's signature distorted guitar riffs and heavy percussion. The tracks are intense and chaotic, with layers of sound that build and collapse in unpredictable ways. The lyrics are in French, and they are a mix of political commentary and personal reflection, touching on themes like resistance, power, and identity.

One standout track is "La Vie Est Un Combat," which translates to "Life is a Battle." The song is a frenzied barrage of sound, with Å's guitar shredding through the chaos. The lyrics speak to the struggle of living in a world that is often hostile and oppressive, but with a call to resist and fight back.

Summary by Aolani Mohana
