Torngat - (Alien8 Recordings)
 
La Petite Nicole
Steve Guimond
 


I've always found it hard to find fault with local boys Torngat, a trio of exquisitely trained musicians who deal with the odd and the beautiful sides of pop and experimental music. Built around a core of French horn, electronics, drums and creaky keyboard varieties, the band have refined their instrumental sounds to the point of near perfection, as heard on album number three, the gritty La Petite Nicole. I like to think of Torngat as the lonely band providing the soundtrack to freak show carnivals or broken down merry-go-rounds on a blustery fall day.
