Object [Fra]


This is more about coldwave flirting with post-punk. A great sense of melody. Swirling somewhere between The Chameleons and Mono with a touch of Joy Division and draped in the shadow of French coldwave

OBJECT is a Paris-based trio comprised of Stephane Pigneul (bass/voice), Benoit Perraudeau (guitar) and Jean-Christian Levé (drums).

After years of concerts and happenings, OBJECT released a debut five track EP in 2007. The press greeted the record with enthusiasm, citing influences such as Ulan Bator, Joy Division, I Love You But I’ve Chosen Darkness and Sonic Youth. A serie of concerts followed the release with OBJECT supporting acts such as Papier Tigre, Githead and Heligoland.

Start of 2009, Object release first album "A Place To Hide" on Str8line Records recorded and produced by Amaury Cambuzat (Ulan Bator, Faust) No concession : a powerful and dark music, "in your face" lyrics, a violent Post-punk spiral which doesn't let you indifferent.
