This morning I installed a music player that I am unfamiliar with, and decided that the first thing I should listen to is Angine de Poitrine Vol. 1 and Vol. II since I hadn't listened to them in a while. And then I found, by coincidence that they played the Montreal Jazz Festival last Saturday (June 27th, 2026) and broke the attendance record set by Stevie Wonder in 2009.

Full instrumental bands aren't as popular as big bands like the holy trinity(Rush) but there are still a lot of instrumental acts out there with talent and staying power. For example:

Explosions In The Sky(personal fave)

Masayoshi Takanaka

Polyphia

Steve Vai

Russian Circles

This Will Destroy You

Godspeed You! Black Emperor

Many more too. Most of those acts have been playing for 10-20+ years and I'm not even naming all the ones I listen to on the regular. Angine de Poitrine has a good chance to last as long as they keep making awesome and weird music. I sincerely hope they do cause they sound amazing.
