Our Take

LES CALAMITES' "Encore! 1983/1987" is like a blast from the past, a time capsule of 80s French punk rock that will have you pogoing around your living room in no time.

From the moment the first track kicks in, you're transported back to a time when leather jackets, ripped jeans, and loud guitars ruled the underground music scene. The energy and attitude of LES CALAMITES is infectious, with their snarling vocals and gritty guitar riffs giving off major rebellious vibes.

But don't be fooled by their tough exterior - there's a playful side to LES CALAMITES that shines through in tracks like "Je m'en fous" and "Les idoles de jeunes," with their catchy hooks and cheeky lyrics that will have you singing along in no time.

The band's DIY ethos and raw sound give "Encore! 1983/1987" a sense of authenticity that is hard to come by in today's overproduced music industry. It's refreshing to hear a band that isn't afraid to let their rough edges show, embracing their imperfections and celebrating their uniqueness.

So dust off your Doc Martens, grab a can of hairspray, and crank up the volume on LES CALAMITES' "Encore! 1983/1987" for a nostalgic trip back to the golden age of punk rock. Trust us, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Les Calamités

In the vast sea of indie rock bands, LES CALAMITÉS stand out like a neon sign in a sea of grey. Hailing from the bustling streets of Paris, this quartet is a whirlwind of infectious energy and infectious melodies. Fronted by the charismatic Sabine, LES CALAMITÉS have been causing a stir in the French music scene for years, building a devoted fanbase with their unique blend of garage rock, punk, and new wave. With their debut album "Chaos dans le Cosmos" (Chaos in the Cosmos), they announced their arrival with a bang, earning critical acclaim and a reputation for their electrifying live shows. Their music is a sonic rollercoaster ride, full of catchy hooks, fuzzy guitar riffs, and Sabine's sassy, no-holds-barred lyrics. It's like a mixtape of your favourite 60s girl groups, punk rock rebels, and French yé-yé singers, all rolled into one irresistible package. But don't let their retro influences fool you - LES CALAMITÉS are no nostalgia act. They are unapologetically modern, tackling contemporary issues with a punk attitude and a sense of humour that is as sharp as their jagged guitars. So get ready to dance, jump, and scream along to the infectious tunes of LES CALAMITÉS. They may be a force to be reckoned with, but one thing's for sure - you won't be able to resist their magnetic charm.
