Ahh, so retro, The Clash meets coldwave. A sound that I have always loved and when I hear the likeness of, I get so happy. It also doesn't hurt that I speak some French, but good music knows no specific language. C'etait Civil (It was Civil) with sexy male vocals and a sound that travels up my spine like a former lover. "Demain Septembre" (Tomorrow September) is one of my favorites and smacks of Asylum Party meets Siouxsie. Yes, there are artists that can still goth rock it old -skool style. Lots of promise from cette person en France. MERCI! wheee.
