Montreal's Duchess Says formed in 2003 out of the mysterious "Church of Budgerigars." The group's members all claim to have come together via their membership in this little-known church to further the religion's message through music. They also self-identify as "Moog rock," mixing synthesizers with dancy punk rhythms. The band's first album, Anthologie des 3 Perchoirs, arrived in 2008, and they supported the Yeah Yeah Yeahs that year on a U.K. tour. The group released both an EP and a split 7" single with Red Mass in 2009 and followed it with their second full-length recording, In a Fung Day T!, in the fall of 2011. They returned in 2015 with a split single with Le Prince Harry, and followed it in 2016 with the full-length Science Nouvelles, a set inspired by John Carpenter, Zombi and Bauhaus. ~ Fred Thomas
