Burkinabe urban griot meets exhilarating noise punk

They are as their name suggests, an act who strike unexpectedly. And they are sensational...an enervating wall of noise given a focus by the incredible presence of singer, the Burkina Faso griot, Kaito Winse.

“The best kind of buzz" -- Louder Than War

Avalanche Kaito: A Burkinabe urban griot (vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Kaito Winse) meets a Brussels noise punk duo. A new alloy that deconstructs both traditional and futurist knowledge.

This thrilling ensemble is releasing their self-titled debut album hot on the heels of their acclaimed 4-song EP Dabalomuni (January 2022), that The Wire called “freaked, juddering electronic punk.”

A mysterious matrix that echoes disparate (but strangely compatible) sonic strands: deep griot traditions, Fugazi, Can, 70s era Zappa, Black Midi, the full throttle rush of Nyege Nyege Tapes.\r\n
