Math Rock / Indie
Chevreuil

Chevreuil is a two pieces band.

Tony C plays Touch guitar.
Julien F plays Magnetic drums.
Tony C uses 4 amplifiers.
Julien F uses cigarettes.

Quand Tony C. (guitare) et Julien F. (batterie) commencent le groupe CHEVREUIL en 1998, rien ne laisse présager l’atmosphère musicale unique que va se dégager de leur rencontre et qui donnera lieu à un 1er 45 tours avec ULAN BATOR puis à 3 albums (“SPORT” - 2000, “GHETTO BLASTER” - 2001, “CHATEAUVALLON” - 2003), ainsi qu’à une manière unique d’appréhender le dispositif scénique, le tout apportant indéniablement une évolution dans la musique d’aujourd’hui.

CASSE BRIQUE (BE) Math Rock / Indie / Rock
Casse brique

CASSE BRIQUE, duo utilitaire du collectif honest house.
Si certains grandirent sous l'influence végétativement musclée de Leguman, d'autres empruntèrent aussi des voies plus abricabracadabrantes pour devenir le nouveau magnat de la construction, l'empereur de la truelle et du bloc Ytong multicolore, j'ai nommé: Legoman! Ceci n'est pas une fiction et la Belgique récemment annexée à la France a trouvé ses nouveaux conducteurs de chantier: Casse Brique.
Plus bâtisseur que démolisseur, ce duo bruxellois d'adoption assène un math-rock savamment élaboré et néanmoins d'une efficacité exemplaire: le ciment prend rapidement tellement la paire est de taille; leur mur sonore toujours loopé, jamais loupé!
Récemment coulé dans la chape du collectif Honest House, CB semble déjà tombé dans les bonnes grâces du grand Architecte du rock et ne laissera nullement de marbre les fans de Chevreuil, Honey for Petzi, et autres Shellac.
Et le maçon polonais me direz-vous? Il écoute Glumor bien au chaud!

SETTING SUN (US) Songwriting / Indie / Folk
Setting Sun
Singer-songwriter Gary Levitt has a solid take on the balance between rural naif and urban hipster that's at the root of the current alt-folk scene, but for all the acoustic guitars and simple musical settings of the third Setting Sun album, he's no Devendra Banhart type of modern flower child. Levitt (who basically is Setting Sun, although Erica Quitzow, adds cello, violin, drums and vocals) has far more in common with Destroyer's Dan Bejar: the 11 songs on Children of the Wild use not only vintage psych and folk-rock as musical touchstones, but the melodramatic likes of Scott Walker and Hunky Dory-era David Bowie, as well as sophisticated '80s college rockers like Prefab Sprout and the Go-Betweens. Moods range from the giddy, strummy pop rush of "Overjoyed" to the whispered tension of "Not Waste," with room for the folkish delicacy of "Morning Song" as well as the trippy edge of the Beck-like single "No Devil Me No More," with the boyish charm of Levitt's vocals and the inventive melodicism of his tunes tying the whole thing together. Children of the Wild may not fit easily into any currently fashionable genre descriptors, but it's definitely worth a listen
