“Ma Vie En Théorèmes” by Homme is a dark and brooding dive into narcissism and madness. After the June 2024 release, “Mon capitaine,” Homme brings a more progressive track that descends down megalomania.

“Ma Vie En Théorèmes” opens with shimmering, mysterious guitar lines that set an atmospheric and moody tone, quickly followed by sparkly yet subtle drums. As the song builds, Homme’s lead vocalist delivers the lyrics with energy, vitriol, and passion overflowing his cup with sheer greatness. His thick yet high voice moves between moments of sonorous contemplation and sharp, powerful bursts of intensity that fiercely grip you. The juxtaposition of soaring vocals with cold, clinical monologues creates a compelling tension, which is further heightened by the writhing, swooning electric guitars that punctuate the track. The atmosphere intensifies and reaches a climax. The vocalist’s delivery becomes increasingly raw and agonizing and culminates in a despondent, almost anguished finale. The result is an intricate piece of progressive rock that taps into deep emotional and psychological territory.

Lyrically, “Ma Vie En Théorèmes” examines the mind of a character who views himself as superior, living in an idealized world of algorithms and theoretical constructs. The repeated line, “Je suis le roi” (I am the king), underscores the character’s inflated ego and desire for control. He commands those around him to think like him, and in his delusions, he constructs a world where he alone holds power and influence. As the song unravels, it becomes clear that this grandiose facade masks a profound loneliness, as the character reflects on his isolation and the departure of his children, ultimately retreating into an imagined world where he can remake reality as he sees fit.

The accompanying music video is described as an intriguing, artistic piece with powerful animations that enhance the song’s thematic depth, offering a visual representation of the track’s Kafkaesque and philosophical undertones.

With “Ma Vie En Théorèmes,” Homme cements their place in the French rock scene and gets us excited for their upcoming debut album. Stay tuned for more action!
