BYE BYE TSUNAMI – the meth-metal, post-mental, future jazz trio from planet 無 – presents a new video for “My Dog Doesn't Love Me,” found on their new Eating EP, out today on Nefarious Industries.
Embodied by Nathan L. (flaubosax, flute, electronics), Søren Høi (drums), and Uldis Vitol (bass), 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 delivers 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.
Eating features a guest guitar spot from Manlio Maresca, and guest vocals from the likes of Sigurd Neimann, Francesco Colocci, Neker, and Sabiwa throughout the record. The EP was mixed and mastered by Marco Colocci, and features art by Frances Lili Farmer, with the design/layout handled by Yunyen Chuang.
With the “My Dog Doesn't Love Me” video, directed by Nathan L. Chuang and featuring performers Nanna Koppel and Matilde Flor, the BYE BYE TSUNAMI collective offers, “This song is a prayer addressed to the Dog-God who seems to go out of his way to show no love for you. My God avoids me, my Dog prefers to go out alone because my presence embarrasses him. I can't cry enough; I can't bear it. My sadness is deep and inescapable. I just wanted a pet to express the feelings I hide deeply in my soul and finally find some relief, but even that doesn't work. What have I done to deserve my Dog's hatred? Am I not enough for you, my God?”
