"C'est com... com... compliqué" showcases Faust's signature blend of avant-garde rock and experimental soundscapes. The album features a diverse array of instrumentation, including distorted guitars, pulsating bass lines, and eclectic percussion that create a rich tapestry of sound. Tracks like "Kundalini tremolos" and "Petits sons appétissants" highlight the band's penchant for layering textures, with intricate sound manipulations and unexpected sonic shifts. The tempo varies throughout, oscillating between frenetic energy and more subdued, meditative moments, particularly in "Ce chemin est le bon." The production is raw yet polished, allowing the organic and electronic elements to coexist harmoniously, making the album a distinctive exploration of complexity and simplicity in sound.
