The culmination of worC (Aurélien Perreira) and Eggeh (Igor Omodei) projects, their style is inspired by Meshuggah's polyrhythmic structure and muted guitar tones. The EP "8", the band's first release, is available as a free download in its entirety from the band's official website. Their first full-length album, Februus, released on October 31, 2011.
Consisting of ten main tracks and three additional ambient pieces on a second CD, Februus' blend of Meshuggah-style rhythms with the atmospherics of Jesu and ambient undertones of Rosetta has garnered much respect from the metal community. Each track flows seamlessly into the next, making the album into a singlular monolithic concept.
UES formed after the split of Longchat with Igor Omodei and Benoit Friedrich.
Current lineup:
Matthieu Romarin on vocals
Jean Ferry on drums
Benoit Friedrich on bass
Jérôme Colombelli on guitars
Aurélien Perreira on guitars and ambiences
Igor Omodei on guitars and production
Innocent
Uneven Structure Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Filled with trampled and shivering innocence .
Everything is there, locked up, in deep sleep.
For a long time chained to this ramshackle ship.
Let me touch my dream again.
The one I wanted to keep.
Our laughs are lost in the nowadays gloom.
Tears running through time made crevices .
Do you really think you can take that away?
Oh no you can't, it's a promise, an end in itself.
I have been and I am the hero you've never were.
I have the power of bliss and happiness.
Let me touch my dream again.
The one I wanted to keep.
I left them, alone in my world.
I forgot to leave'em the code.
My beloved brothers,forgive me.
I have gone astray.
I am walking towards you.
I'm looking for the way back.
I could fly above you long ago.
Laugh of everything and..
So much laugh of you.
I can still feel the special scent of our innocence.
I can still feel the taste of this sweet late afternoon.
'I bring back both the worst and the best from my trip.
But nothing compared to your laughter that I begin to sense.
The lyrics of Uneven Structure’s song Innocent describe the feeling of looking back on one's past and reminiscing about one's innocence. The opening line “The wet and black stare is pointing to the sky” paints the image of a dark and gloomy day, and the following line “filled with trampled and shivering innocence” suggests that the singer feels as though their innocence has been taken away from them. The next lines “Everything is there, locked up, in deep sleep. For a long time chained to this ramshackle ship” further emphasize the idea that the singer feels trapped and unable to access the innocence that they once had.
The singer then goes on to say “let me touch my dream again. The one I wanted to keep” which shows that they are yearning to relive their past and regain their innocence. The next lines describe a nostalgic scene where the singer is remembering “blond and thin curls falling on this face” and laughing with friends, but it is now lost in the “nowadays gloom” and “tears running through time” have created “crevices.”
The singer then challenges anyone who thinks they can take their innocence away, proclaiming that they have the power of “bliss and happiness” and that they are the hero that they never had. They then express regret for leaving their “beloved brothers” behind and not giving them the “code” to their world. The final lines describe the singer leaving their world and searching for their way back, reminiscing about the past and the laughter that they shared.
Overall, the song Innocent is a nostalgic reflection on the past, expressing a desire to regain lost innocence and return to a simpler time.

The wet and black stare is pointing to the sky.
The sky is masked by a dark and wet gaze.
Filled with trampled and shivering innocence .
Innocence has been destroyed and exposed to harsh conditions.
Everything is there, locked up, in deep sleep.
All things remain stagnant and dormant.
For a long time chained to this ramshackle ship.
Trapped for a significant duration on a dilapidated vessel.
Let me touch my dream again.
The one I wanted to keep.
Yearning to relive a cherished aspiration.
The blond and thin curls are falling on this face.
Locks of blonde hair cascade over the face.
Our laughs are lost in the nowadays gloom.
Our jovial nature has evaporated in the current bleakness.
Tears running through time made crevices .
Erosion over time caused by tears.
Do you really think you can take that away?
Can you truly deprive me of that which I hold dear?
Oh no you can't, it's a promise, an end in itself.
It's a guarantee, an untouchable conclusion.
I have been and I am the hero you've never were.
I possess heroic characteristics that you lack.
I have the power of bliss and happiness.
I have the ability to generate joy and elation.
I left them, alone in my world.
I forsook them, leaving them to their own devices.
I forgot to leave'em the code.
I neglected to provide them with the necessary information.
My beloved brothers,forgive me.
I request forgiveness from my cherished siblings.
I have gone astray.
I am walking towards you.
I'm looking for the way back.
I have wandered off course and seek a path back to you.
I could fly above you long ago.
I was elevated above you before.
Laugh of everything and..
So much laugh of you.
Laughter pervasive, especially emanating from you.
I can still feel the special scent of our innocence.
The unique fragrance of our innocence persists.
I can still feel the taste of this sweet late afternoon.
The flavors of a pleasurable late afternoon reverberate.
'I bring back both the worst and the best from my trip.
I have returned with both positive and negative experiences.
But nothing compared to your laughter that I begin to sense.
However, nothing compares to the refreshing sound of your laughter that I detect.

Februus got me thru the hardest time in my life and when I seen the dude with his face covered in the end and the floating structure I started crying like a baby. Absolutely beautiful. Coming from a fan that's followed you guys since you first started up as a Myspace project with the first demos of 8. Thank you.
Kasper Hansen
Same here. I bought the Februus album 10 years ago. It’s undoubtedly the album I have listened to the most.
