Usually regarded as the Belgian ZAO, COS develops an European type of chamber-rock, built on onomatopeic vocals or sung in French or German. The band displays beautiful themes interwined with complex orchestrated rhythms. Its music evokes the Canterbury School (CARAVAN, HATFIELD AND THE NORTH...), the anguished and dark music of KING CRIMSON or QUIET SUN and Terje RYPDAL's atmospheric jazz-rock. Pascale SON uses her high-pitched voice, able to perform the most incredible modulations, and this allows her to become one of the best singers in that style. The leader Daniel SCHELL is a guitarist extraordinaire, and proves to develop ideas as original as Robert FRIPP's.

An obscure jazz-rock band that existed from the mid-'70s through the early '80s, Cos was led by singer/oboe player Pascale Son, and also featured members Daniel Schell (flute, guitar), Bob Darsch (drums), Alain Goutier (bass), and Charles Loos (keyboards). Self described as a "mixture of jazz and Canterbury," the quintet released such albums as Postaeolian Train Robbery, Viva Bomma, Babel, Swiss Chalet, and Passions, before fading away.
