Angine de Poitrine Debuts Masked Third Member Playing Triangle at Toronto Show

The brief onstage addition broadens the duo’s theatrical microtonal math-rock presentation.

Overview

  • Angine de Poitrine expanded to a trio during a sold-out HISTORY show in Toronto on Thursday when a masked, polka-dotted performer joined the pair to debut an untitled instrumental.
  • The guest wore a boxy headpiece with two pointy antennae and struck a triangle once to open the song before taking a short, more active passage later in the instrumental.
  • Writers described the new track as funkier with proggy turns and a ‘speed-choogle’ feel that contrasts some of the duo’s heavier material.
  • Setlist.fm lists the guest simply as “Poitrine,” but that identity has not been verified and the band’s publicist declined to confirm details by email.
  • Fan-shot video and Reddit discussion have driven coverage of the appearance and the triangle’s symbolic role, which could reshape the band’s live mythology and publicity as they continue their North American run and prepare for a 2027 world tour.
