The guitarist is reminiscent of young Buckethead. I thought I’m stereotyping based on the outfit, but no: looked at another performance of theirs, and the movements remind me of the bucket man even more. Except this dude isn’t freakishly tall, of course.
Buckethead can slap the shit outta bass, btw, so they’re both multi-instrumentalists in this regard.
They all are less restricted in their movement, though Glass Beams are pretty stiff for some reason. But Poitrines’ and Buckethead’s getup is more elaborate in the hat area, which might be a factor. However, I recently learned that Buckethead changes guitars without removing the hat.

I thought the same thing! Maybe there’s something about playing in a mask that affects mannerisms?
Finally remembered that I know a few bands who perform in masks: Mamaleek, Monster Zoku Onsomb, The Berzerker, Boney NEM (probably parodying Tool). Glass Beams were in the recommendations for Angine de Poitrine.
