Varsovie [Fra]


Between dark rock and post-punk, Varsovie emerged in 2004 by the creative output of Arnault Destal (lyrics/drums/arrangements) and Gregory Catherina (music/vocals/guitar), both ingrained figures of the French underground scene. (Forbidden Site)

Armed with influences such as Joy Division, Bauhaus and a generation of decadent and dark bands, journeying through a literary overdose that leaves irreversible repercussions and a pronounced taste for vertigo, Varsovie's repertoire is raw, in the image of the city (Warszawa) that, in the middle of the apocalypse, fought on, area by area, barricade by barricade, even if everything seemed to be already lost.

Joined by Thibault Chapelat on bass, and replaced by Yan Four in 2006, the band brings all of this energy and passion together on stage, radical and effervescent, in balance on the edge, the last cigarette before the long fall.
