 | | Description: | A La O Terre is an album by Population Ii, released in 2020. The album is a punk CD. - "Introducing Population II-blazing through the stratosphere, boiling up from beneath the sea, hanging in the air like smoke... These elemental tunes drift and fluctuate, at one with the air, over extreme heat. Population II has beamed out of Quebec with a mind-melting debut [À La Ô Terre] of hard psych, freckled with punk sentiment. Both old school and timeless, these young humans rip. They are impressive in their live actions and this album captures this raw energy on wax. Produced by Manu from the great band Chocolat, a very high bar has been set, indeed. Fluid, tough, and over-saturated, this album is bound to please fans of the label and new-comers alike. Reminiscent of Amon Düül, early Pink Floyd, Kollektiv, Laurence Vanay, Les Olivensteins, early Kraftwerk, even a touch of the Kinks. " -John Dwyer"A La O Terre" is a boundary-pushing CD release by Population II, presented by the independent label Castle Face. On this album, the Montreal-based trio explores a hypnotic blend of psychedelic rock, jazz-inflected improvisation and raw garage energy, weaving long-form compositions with unexpected rhythmic twists and dense, swirling guitars. The sound is both atmospheric and immediate: hazy organ layers, driving bass lines and explosive drumming build a trance-like momentum, while the vocals drift in and out like another instrument in the mix. "A La O Terre" feels like a live session captured in its most volatile moment, full of tension, release and spontaneous detours that reward repeated listening. Listeners who appreciate adventurous, genre-blurring rock will find a rich, immersive journey that balances experimentation with a strong sense of groove and mood.
Castle Face, the manufacturer and label behind this CD, is known for championing forward-thinking rock acts and maintaining a strong DIY ethos. Their releases often emphasize distinctive artwork, high-quality physical editions and a clear commitment to bands that expand the boundaries of psych, garage and experimental rock. With "A La O Terre," Castle Face underlines its role as a home for artists who seek new sonic territory rather than repeating familiar formulas.
Population II have developed a reputation as a powerful live band and a bold studio act, merging psychedelic rock, prog-leaning structures and improvisational freedom into a distinctive, modern sound. Their music often features extended instrumental passages and dynamic shifts that move from fragile, almost ambient sections to heavy, fuzz-drenched climaxes. While they remain an underground act, they have attracted critical attention in alternative and psych-rock circles for their adventurous songwriting and intense performances, positioning them as one of the more intriguing bands in the contemporary experimental rock landscape. | | | No. of tracks: |
