TOTORRO is a unique band, difficult to categorize. Some describe their music as math-rock, to express a certain complexity in the structure of events, but the tracks are more like stories told… No singer: in this instrumental music, we observe the two guitarists, the bassist and the drummer.
Chatte Royal's music is like the soundtrack to a film that hasn't been made yet. With powerful riffs, hard-hitting rhythms, and a blend of aggressive math-rock and melodic post-rock, you quickly find yourself in a world where you'd like to linger a little longer. This is a description that's often given to many post-rock bands, but whereas traditional bands in the genre let you drift off and dream, Chatte Royal keeps your attention firmly anchored in the here and now, within the boundaries of the world they create themselves.
