Biography

In a world where the mind's blooming seemed unreachable, this project, above all, was a means to find a reason to live according to one's inner truth, in this limited reality. We have invented our own language coming from intuition, then we codified it and gave it rules.

This language is translated by spontaneous emotions which generate sounds; the voice, as an instrument, takes on a true importance and all the emotion is released, at first, through the choice of sounds. This language thus allows a totally unique vision of expression.

The sounds are also developed in order to give them a meaning, and hence a personal lexicon is created. These words can come out of sheer intuition or have a link with existing languages.

The concept of the word Öxxö Xööx has several origins. It mixes the symbols of the yin and yang, the Ouroboros and the hexadecimal system (0110 = x6 1001 = x9), the " X "s standing for the " 1 "s, which puts yet a bigger stress on the opposition with the " O ". Each vowel has a " ¨ " sign, to render a specific accent to our language (for lack of a whole alphabet with new symbols). It is also the symbol of the duality of this universe.

Öxxö Xööx thus means 69, symbolising above all the desire to transform the 6 (bad in us) into a 9 (good in us) to free the immaterial (the superluminous soul) from the empire of the materialism (the underluminous body) within everything of this universe, where evil is possible. It represents, the opposite forces of the world, the eternal " recurrence " (atomic recycling) and expresses a position facing the entropy present everywhere in the tangible universe. To break free from all forms of limitation and alienation.

As a reflection of a world that suffers and dies a little more each and every day, Öxxö Xööx's music is dark and sad. At the same time, it is full of hope. Because everything goes back to light and love, inevitably. Because this world is simply an ephemeral game where we are experimenting suffering through evil in a three-dimensional existence.

For us there is no movement without a goal, and the goal is simply light, perfection, and absolute love, in the original and real dimension. This project is like a battle, a rage which aims to free the imprisoned life, inside of the embodied being. It is spiritual music that wants to elevate the soul to the original light, in a unique way, wild and free. Without prescribing to a religious practice.

The musical instruments that are used are both ancient and futuristic. It is avant-garde and experimental doom metal, with grand organs, harpsichords, string ensembles and opera, with metal and electronic music lead by the voices of Öxxö Xööx (Laurent Lunoir), Rïcïnn (Laure Le Prunenec), and the drums of Isarnos (Thomas Jacquelin).

We try to dramatize our inner truths, and our true personalities, through a tribal, telluric and spiritual visual that's come from our imagination, another reality where there is no limit. To try to recreate the link between the earth and true reality, to break all the walls above our heads, which encloses, limits us and prevents us from raising ourselves.

Art is magic and music is therapy for us and above all, a cure. We created our own method of liberation, the depth of mind and beauty can make the heart beat, the intimate revolt against evil in humans is proof of one's membership in goodness.

All of this has one purpose: to make our seed grow, to see it turn into a tree whose roots will grow into the earth, whose branches will rise high above into the infinite universe.

There was a time when we rebeled against light and shut up in a cube, it is about time we rebel against the darkness, to get out of this limiting cube.

We love you, eternally.
Öxxö Xööx.
