If my French was better I might be able to find out why he killed the dog... I like to think the music conveys a certain level of remorse about this unfortunate action.
Favorite track: J'ai tué ton chien.
"Si j'ai tué ton chien c'est peut-être à cause de cette fille perdue.
C'est bien connu, l'amour ça fait peur et ça provoque des insomnies.
Alors ton chien... j'en pouvais plus."

Pour la gaudriole, c’est ailleurs que ça se passe. Ici, alors même que le morceau se nomme Amour, c’est surtout le mot «violence» que l’on met en avant, lancé d’une voix sèche et délavée qui s’accorde bien à l’ossature émaciée et strictement synthétique. Le suivant ne se montre pas plus accort et met en avant un climat particulièrement poisseux qui suinte le repli sur soi et l’enfermement mental.

Another band from the East of France, hailing from Reims, LE FUTUR Facile are a duo who play, as they define it, a ‘Dark Wave sombre et vague’, twisted and dissonant in the same vain of some bands around Teenage Menopause and Le Turc Mecanique labels. They’ve just released a limited 10-track cassette titled “Amour” for the excellent Brittany micro-label Distag Records, actually a collection of tracks already appeared on their bandcamp plus two unreleased ones.
Using a minimal instrumentation based on drum machine, bass, guitar and a large use of synths, their intense and anxious, but also obsessive and paranoic sound is built with a dizzying array of hypnotic droning icy synths on one side and sleazy electro-post punk on the other, the sore, emaciated vocals further emphasizes a disturbing sense of loneliness, boredom, emptyness and desolation, slightly tempered by ironical lyrics.
The tense and mesmerizing, synth driven title track, “Amour”, where instead the word ‘violence’ is repeated multiple times, as well as being one of the most addictive, was also the most suited to receive the remix treatment by the fellow French electronic producer from Reims, GrAnD bOrDeL.
Bouncy bass-laden pulses lay the foundation, dark uproars of sound, hypnotic synth sequence, effected bouncing vocal samples, and stark drum patterns push and develop into an trance-inducing dark techno number filled with sweeping synths and propulsive, growing keys providing an understated and subtle epic quality, right for the most shadowy and sweaty of late night dance floors

Situationist coldwave from France that is deliciously icy, high-drama vampire vocals colliding with icy synth & guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 7, 2021
Thank you for the second album. Got all three now on Bandcamp and they inspire me so much.
Kids in school, then work, and kids back from school - then baths and homework - AND FINALLY a bit of time in my cobbled together mini studio in my one bedroom flat. YOU inspire me to make the effort to make all that stuff work. Sentient Helicopters
