Un petit topic pub pour mon groupe où je suis le dictateur, chante, joue de la guitare, et programme (ben quoi?)
Notre premier EP "Blood=Sock" est sorti sur Vault106 en téléchargement gratuit, oh yeaaaah!! (depuis mars, ok...).

Une petite bio: Le groupe débuta en 2003 avec l’idée d’apporter en son sein l’influence de divers groupes punks, grunges, industriels. Après quelques années, le line-up se maintient à 4 + les machines. Pourquoi sommes-nous là ? Faire la fête dans le chaos, profiter autant que possible, et jusqu’à l’overdose tant qu’à faire, avec un son sale, noisy et lourd : voilà le but de notre existence (drink&fuck is good for you !)!!
Et surtout n’oubliez pas, PSYCHODIRTYCHAOS is your religion !

Si vous pouviez nous donner un avis sur le truc, ou nous aidez, ou quoi que ce soit, ça serait hyper coool!! (on veut jouer bowwdel!)

Nouvelle review (en anglais) de blood=sock:

http://mgsreviews.blogspot.com/2009/10/dark-soul.html

Citation de mgs :

Dark Soul sounds like what would have happened if one were to have given Kurt Cobain a drum machine and a synthesizer in his early days of making music. Their debut EP, Blood=Sock evokes the raw grungey feel of Bleach while adding whole new layers of electronic influence to the mix.

The ambient opener, "IN00" brings up imagery of waiting at a train station, late at night. This song seems to imply that the listener is about to be taken on a dark and mysterious trip, a view which becomes solidified when the next track, "Burning Flight" kicks in. Starting with a tired synth riff and mumbling lyrics, we are snapped to chaos when heavy distorted guitars kick in, accompanied by programmed drums and the blood curdling screams of Kurt- er... Saxy Dorian, the band's lead guitarist/singer.

This style carries pretty consistently up until track 6, "Heavy Snow." Dropping the drums, and replacing it with what sounds like an old music box this track brings you down the back alleys of a rundown carnival with Dorian's wailing vocals moaning vehemently in the background.

The album ends on a very creepy note with the Residents-esque closer, "Virus Blast Fast." A distorted tonal riff repeats throughout the entirety of the four minute song, with low grumblings of white noise and distant vocals. A fitting choice for a closer.

Overall, Blood=Sock is a very creative album which brings up the early 90's lo-fi grunge nostalgia while still managing to throw in some fresh sounding electronics. While I would have liked to have seen the synthesizers featured a little more throughout the actual songs instead of just as segues, they added a nice touch.

Be sure to download the album for FREE, right here
