Event Description
Yoo Doo Right, Mother Tongues, K0M0D0

Experimental rock trio Yoo Doo Right (Montréal, CA) wed noisy, melodic guitar parts, effect-heavy synthesizer soundscapes, deep bass grooves and patented percussive furies into a literal wall of sound. Solemn, chin-to-chest vocals dance in and out of the primordial sonic spectrum, creating a warm pillow to rest a weary head upon. Justin Cober (guitar, synthesizers, vocals), Charles Masson (bass) and John Talbot (drums, percussions), in their honest approach to experimentation, engage with elements of krautrock, shoegaze, post-rock and psychedelia, crafting a unique sound that could be described as a “car crash in slow motion”.

Yoo Doo Right’s sophomore LP, A Murmur, Boundless To The East, recorded with visionary producer Radwan Ghazi Moumneh (Suuns, Ought, Fly Pan Am) at Hotel2Tango in Montréal and mixed by Seth Manchester at Machines With Magnets (Battles, Lightning Bolt, Lingua Ignota) in Pawtucket, RI, is all at once a heartfelt salute to infinity and a critique of one’s shortcomings. Also featuring string work from Jessica Moss (Thee Silver Mount Zion), this headfirst leap into the proverbial “wall of sound” is sure to please (and/or alienate) fans of constructively destructive works à la Godspeed You! Black Emperor, METZ or My Bloody Valentine. A Murmur, Boundless To The East came out on June 10th, 2022 via Mothland.

Live, Yoo Doo Right are straight up loud, bold and assertive, laying on the boom with moxie, enveloping the audience in a brazen cloak-like musical fabric as the outside world disappears. Songs are played with a purpose, sets are built with an intent to unify, and expression takes on an intricate psychedelic form. Over the years, Yoo Doo Right have toured all of Canada, the United States as well as Europe, playing festivals such as SXSW (Austin, TX), Levitation Psych Fest (Austin, TX), Dunk!festival (Ghent, BE), M for Montreal, Sled Island (Calgary, CA), Treefort Festival (Boise, ID) along the way. In 2018, they embarked on an epic journey, taking on main support duties for Acid Mothers Temple’s North American tour, adding to the list of international bands they have shared the stage with that also includes DIIV, A Place to Bury Strangers, Wooden Shjips, Kikagaku Moyo, FACS, FRIGS and Jessica Moss, amongst others.

Since forming in 2016, Yoo Doo Right have released a full-length, two EPs as well as a handful of singles, including a split 7” alongside legendary Japanese experimental titans Acid Mothers Temple. Their introductory cassette tape, Nobody Panicked And Everybody Got On (2016), recorded at Breakglass Studios and mixed by Braids’ Austin Tufts and Taylor Smith, introduced the band’s signature bombastic approach to psychedelia. Their sophomore recording, EP2 (2017), mixed by Efrim Menuck (Godspeed You! Black Emperor) at the world-renowned Hotel2Tango facilities, offered a new, deftly solidified, direction. With their debut album, Don’t Think You Can Escape Your Purpose (2021), recorded alongside engineers Sébastien Fournier (Avec Le Soleil Sortant De Sa Bouche, Panopticon Eyelids, No Negative) at Hotel2Tango and Guillaume Chiasson (Bon Enfant, Ponctuation, Jesuslesfilles) at Le Pantoum, the three piece established new sonic horizons, pushing the krautrock, shoegaze and post-rock genres towards their ill-defined, proverbial “limits”. Part interstellar ear-worms, part sonic experimentations, their debut long-player saw them relentlessly chase, and successfully capture, the very essence of their art, resulting in layered bombastic tracks ranging from mechanical krautrock to audacious space rock.
