For twenty years API UIZ was a polyrhythmic multicolored punky math rock-like trio from Bordeaux. They have influenced an entire generation of French musicians by the ferociously independent way they play and produce „raw, unworked, but structured music” which was the title of their debut album: Musique brute et non travaillée mais structurée.

Since 2015 API UIZ is a quintet. „Peplum”, their first album with the extended line up released now on 12″ vinyl on Kythibong, Les Potagers Natures, Mon Cul C’est Du Tofu, La République Des Granges, Attila Tralala (Belgium) and Red Wig Records (Germany):

If yes, then you also like French bass/drums duo DAiKiRi

Fast, short, chaotic songs, and some long one.

on Et Mon Cul C’est Du Tofu?,  Who Is Brain Records,  Ascenseur Émotionnel,  La Face Cachée Records (all French),  Hola Halo DIY (Italy),  NAAB (Czech) and  Red Wig Records (Germany). Buy digital copy via Bandcamp

But who is Marcel Supra? I have asked them.

„Marcel Supra is a fictionnal character, you can see him on the cover of the record, he is the personification of the wood-burning stove that we use in our practice room.”
