For the title of their cd they choose a palindrome, for the songs they made things less complicated : "Six", "Neuf", etc. Anyway the titles make clear that we are in the company here of a french band. An instrumental postrock combo to be more precise. They do a nice job. A lot is happening in their inventive constructed songs. With their use of riffs they succeed in building up nice layers of organic and melodic music.

L'âme sûre ruse mal
(Bolton Wonderland rec / aposiopèse 2006)
Ok, let's use them all: instrumental, mathematical, math-rock, free-jazz, avant-post-rock (and retro-front), cinematographic, angular, atmospheric, cerebral, reflective film-music somehow minimal krautrock aesthetic, 7o's experimentalism, repetitive figures, labyrinthic, i mean, french quartet Fago.Sepia knows how to excel in the above mentioned formulas, - the same compositions are entitled as numbers, - they are more than excercise of style when they touch perfection of cold mechanics. Nothing new or a significant step forward, anyway, great.
