Et Sans was a Canadian experimental rock band from Montreal. Their music was characterized by lengthy compositions with lyrics in French, combined with loud, distortion-filled electronic and instrumental sounds with a heavy bass beat .[1]
The band was formed by former Godspeed You! Black Emperor guitarist Roger Tellier-Craig and Alexandre St-Onge from the Shalabi Effect. The duo released their first album, l'Autre, in 2001 on the Locust Music label.[2] [3]
After expanding their group to include Felix Morel, Sophie Trudeau, and Stephen De Oliveira, they recorded Par Noussss Touss Les Trous de Vos Crânes!, their second album in 2005.[4] It was their first release on Alien8 Recordings, and combined post-industrial, electronic and hard rock sounds.[5]
