Population II + School Disco

Population II is a band dedicated to its disengagement, constantly working on refining their imposing, yet unpretentious sound. A trio consisting of singer/drummer Pierre-Luc Gratton, guitarist/keyboardist Tristan Lacombe and bassist Sébastien Provençal, Population II are masters at both improvised madness and sophisticated composition, delivering heavy psychedelic rock infused with feverish funk rhythms, a hint of jazz philosophy, a burst of energy reminiscent of punk's early days, and a love of minor scales that harkens back to the roots of heavy metal. The band's uniqueness is reinforced by Pierre-Luc's unique voice and his introspective, nostalgic and offbeat lyrics.

Population II returned in October 2023 with Électrons libres du québec, their sophomore album, this time released on Bonsound. A little more straightforward than its predecessor, this new record reflects a natural progression of the sound the trio established on their previous releases, showing a sharp sense of songcraft and an undeniable expertise of their instruments.
