This album focuses on Sapiens, his behavior, his originality, his beauty, his poetry, his wobbly organization, his incoherent thirst for reason, justice and paradoxically privileges... Without sparing his ugliness as his stupidity...
Eight pieces that dissect modern humans on the eve of their extinction. Self-condemned by his so comfortable way of life, he will prefer to maintain it even if it means disappearing rather than daring to question it, frightened by the impossible movement of his monumental standards which he thinks he has engraved in the granite of his sacred mountains. He fantasizes just as much about the strength of his masters who dictate to him the tolerable content of what they will wrongly call Thought, but which is only an electric flood of stereotypes ordered by neurosis and which is closer to a sneeze. than a real thought. Hypnotized by the propaganda infused throughout the daily spectacle, this Human systematically misses his real individual power. We hope by this act to flatter his narcissism by offering him a mirror which, we hope, will be useful to him in this period when only the revolution remains a serious option for life.
"Ainsi parlait hominina" is obviously a nod to Nietzsche, it is a philosophical musical tale (as pompous as it may seem) which despairs of seeing any Reason, in a real or the abstraction of the rules of market, misguided individualism and dogmatic competition, have been able to pollute all thoughts to the point of prohibiting criticism, denying vital wickedness in favor of a hollow benevolence, marketing and narrow-minded... These religions of consumerist happiness knew how to proscribe the imagination necessary for questioning and transform the spiritual need, in an individual quest for a lonely, meditative and fantasized peace... Faced with the fire, we can certainly learn to be at peace, but it is Above all, it seems useful to act concretely with the aim of extinguishing the flames that we have, moreover and in this example, ourselves set ablaze.
Aware that this act will remain useless, this work nevertheless seemed to us a more relevant option than contemplating the scene without even trying anything, than remaining impassively silent, in this state of hypnosis generated by our uninterrupted overconsumption of show.
