The Tuskist ideology roots itself in the absence of a hierarchical organization, placing cooperation at the coreof its operation. The group’s mythology is inspired by vivid cinematic universes, such as the enigmatic andmorbid “Tusk,” where a man dreams of finding the walrus residing in every human being…According to their devoted fanatics, what truly sets the BIG TUSK apart is the exceptional harmony thatcharacterizes the relationship among group members. This synergy gives the listener the privilegedsensation of observing a mythological creature metamorphosing through various universes. Each concertthus becomes a unique experience, an emotional journey that transcends conventional musical paths.
