Zuruck Placenta [Fra]


At the beginning they were CAPHARNAÜM, then APOLLONS DEPRESSIFS. During the 80s, the name and line-up changed regularly until 1988 when they became ZURÜCK PLACENTA. ZURÜCK PLACENTA's music is a mix of powerfull Cold-wave and dark 80's gothic rock, with some industrial influences, and even some hardcore. The band had a strong personnality and a sharp and heavy sound, obvious influences, but well integrated. ZP will released a first demo in 1990, then the self-titled album in 1992, produced by Jean Taxis (Asylum Party, Babel 17, Complot Brünswick, Norma Loy). ZP splited in late 1992, leaving behind them a unique and mythical album, which deserves its rank among the weird and cult temple of French Cold-Wave. BTW: Frustration fans, members went on to start Frustration. You can hear the similarity!
