Recorded and mixed by Christophe Hogommat (Mad Foxes, 20s Falling Man…) across three sessions from October 2022 to April 2023, “Liminal Status” took shape gradually. A novelty for the band, the 9 tracks were largely composed collaboratively by the four members and recorded live. The album delves into “liminal situations,” familiar places suddenly unsettling due to the absence of any human presence. It describes the confinement within everyday life, a form of “uncanny strangeness” or “strange familiar.” The recent health crisis demonstrated how this liminal state could become our Kafkaesque reality. Less focused on science fiction than their previous album, “Silent Running,” the songs in “Liminal Status” subtly address unavoidably current concerns. “Clean Shot” touches on information manipulation and its impact on the masses. “Century” explores industrial excesses disguised as progress. “Dreams Logic” delves into the rejection of reality and societal projects. On “The Long Face,” the collective apathy towards democratic issues is examined.
