"Looty" was the name Queen Victoria gave to the Pekingese that was brought to her as loot from the Chinese imperial palace at the end of the Opium War.
It is not known whether the little dog tried to re-establish his honor and that of the Chinese empire by biting his calf and defecating on Persian carpets that had probably also been looted, or whether he opportunistically surrendered to the transfer from Eastern to Western nobility. We hope the former.
The Looty Trio wants to play, but not only. There are no muzzles, torn loose from the lines we poach ourselves. Not only calves are at risk, we also like to aim higher. We plunder and sharpen the tools we have accumulated over the decades: from jazz scalpels to punk steam hammers, we use everything we can get our hands on to break chains and bark against ostentatious palaces, degrading systems, and - last but not least - boring music.
