The man's voice is not very good. He seems to speak in French. The lyrics probably deal with violence, especially political, since the text that accompanies the release, on Bandcamp, evokes: "men and women with their backs to the wall, then shot, in a black and white world where it seems to be always cold". Curiously, we don't find many ambient or industrial records, evoking the second world war, which place themselves on the side of the victims and the total rejection of the war. TG probably saw things this way and so did the first industrial bands, but since the wave of neofolk, martial industrial... there is essentially an aestheticization, under the cover of a more or less hypocritical denunciation, of the war, of the authoritarian regimes, of the soldier as a hero, and so on.

"Un dimanche d'executions" (the longest track, which also gives its name to be album) is a curious mix of field-recordings, spoken words and primitive melodies played with a poorly-sampled keyboard guitar sound. The man's voice is not really great. He seems to speak in French - like the title of the album is actually French. The lyrics probably deal with violence, especially political violence, since the text that goes with the release, on Bandcamp, evokes that : "Men and women put their backs to the wall, then shot, in a black and white world where it seems to be always cold.". On the contrary, the melodies are pretty nice, not "dark" or "depressing" at all, and they are proposed separately on the next tracks.
