Sorry State reviews of our two latest releases:
Dernier Futur: S/T 12” (Cool Marriage)
Debut release from this French band. Lately it seems like most of of the French music that we carry has an oi! vibe, and Dernier Futur fit that pattern. However, rather than sounding like classic minimalistic, anthemic French oi!, Dernier Futur has a more complex, melodic, and rather melancholy sound. While Dernier Futur sounds very French in some respects, they also remind me a lot of late 80s English bands like HDQ, Dan, Exit Condition, and early (i.e. pre-Mush) Leatherface. I imagine the people who make this music wear old pea coats that smell like cigarettes, that they might have been skinheads when they were younger and while they still like their music loud and fast, these days they prefer a little more meat on the bone. One might also say that it sounds like a meaner, heavier, and punkier version of mid-period Husker Du, but that doesn’t get at how grey, industrial, and European this sounds.
U.R.S.A.: L'Esprit de la Teuf 12” (Cool Marriage)
Debut release from this band from Lyon, France. U.R.S.A. is a bass, drums, synth, and vocal group that makes bubbly, high-energy punk songs that remind me of a modern version of Suburban Lawns or early B-52’s. The synth lines are very melodic—even approaching syrupy—but the high-energy drums and the rapid-fire vocals (that remind me a lot of Fay Fife from the Rezillos) provide the perfect counterpoint. If you’re into the weirdo party vibes of anything from Downtown Boys to BB Eye, I encourage you to give the album a shot.

Two humble instrumentals recorded in a kitchen, for fans of ghosts and amateurism.

Don't think we've got many copy left of the two records, but the URSA one is available in the US from Total Punk.

URSA are a 50% pop band and a 7% rock band. They're a 100% female punk band with 72% thoughtful, 86% cynical and 77% crazy lyrics sung in french. 0% guitar, 120% amazing bass lines, 178% intense synth lines, 136% high BPM drumming. 200% catchy. Sorry for all the numbers. Think Devo meets Kleenex/Lilliput meets Ausmuteants.

Hey people! For those of you still buying stuff despite the obvious failure of consumer society, we've got two records out ~ now.
Both bands are from Lyon, France.
URSA LP = nine tracks of indefinable late party hymns for pink mutants and closet aerobic fans. Synth-based punk with an actual "musician" behind the keys and a singer who can sing, backed by energetic drums + bass and... Well, fuck, who's reading this anyway ? Check it out if you dig DEVO, LIO, ROBOTNICKA, EDITH NYLON, pop hooks as far as the ear can hear, or the idea of a sped-up, cleanly-produced Subnormal Girls comp.
Co-released with Future Folklore and the band, artwork by Bike Sabbath.

DERNIER FUTUR MLP = "7 tracks of French punk for fans of French Punk" could be enough of a description, BUT let's just add that if you're into all those bands from the last few years, the ones who sing in French but are NOT from Paris, like ZONE INFINIE or TRAITRE, you'll probably dig it. It's melodic, but not "melodic punk", combative but not "hardcore", classic-sounding but not "retro". Give it a try at https://dernierfutur.bandcamp.com/releases.
Co-released with a bunch of French anarchists.

Hey, the Chronophage tapes are/ will be available via DrugFront (Texas tape label), Perennial (Olympia), Lulu's (Melbourne), Bis Aufs Messer (Germany), Kink (Germany), in some mysterious place in Japan, and in a bunch of not-so-mysterious places in France. Also through the band in the US. Just thought we'd let you all know!
For single copies in the US or anywhere else, note that postage is rather cheap at 2,60€.
