Moustache (Half a Scissor) is the second full-length album by Mr. Oizo, the alias of producer/filmmaker Quentin Dupieux, released on September 19, 2005.[2]
This was Dupieux's last release for F Communications, which infamously referred to it as "unlistenable" due to its extensive use of unusual time signatures and dissonant samples.[3] His next two albums were released on the French label Ed Banger Records. The album was re-released by the American label Brainfeeder in 2011 on limited-edition vinyl.
The album's only single, "Stunt", did not chart.
