During Summer 2004, Amesoeurs was formed by Neige (Alcest), Audrey Sylvain and Fursy Teyssier (Les Discrets) with the purpose of creating a music that reflects the dark side of the industrial era and modern civilization.
A few songs were immediately written and the band performed one gig. Shortly after, Fursy Teyssier decided to leave the band to go back to his studies. In April 2005, a first MCD entitled "Ruines Humaines" was self-recorded. The band sent it to a few labels but had to wait 2006 to see its release through Northern Silence Productions. Later in 2006 Amesoeurs signed a contract with the Italian label Code 666 and in 2007 Fursy joined the band again. Then, following conscientiously its inspirations Amesoeurs kept on the composition and recorded a full-length album during winter 2008-2009 in the Klangschmiede Studio E with Markus Stock (Empyrium). This self-titled album can be described as a mature and ambitious collection of songs honouring the band concept through its complete prism of images and emotions. Due to some internal conflicts and different points of view about the band's future, Amesoeurs splited up with the release of its first effort.
Swallowed by the hive...
We, amesoeurs, are the children of this sad and metallic century; receptors capturing the aggressive and unhealthy waves of the industrial era. We have always been equally disgusted and fascinated by everything relating to cities and urban lifestyle, that is to say the endless rows of grey and threatening buildings, the throng of souls that they accomodate, the perpetual motion, the danger, the winding alleyways, the smoky and dubious bars, old graffitis, train stations, casinos and other hostile gaming rooms, the freezing neon lights, nightlife, technology, futuristic buildings, sex, depravation, poverty, anxiety, filth, the suffocating smells of pollution combined with sweat, shit and piss.
Human beings have been perverted, swallowed up by urban lifestyle, they have sold their souls cheap. We live in a hell made of metal and concrete where frightened men get lost and merge into one another like the insects of a gigantic hive. Shadows amongst shadows, they more or less carry out their shitty jobs and then drown their issues and sorrow in intoxication. Television, booze, cigs, and constrained laughs are the ways to forget...
The number of degenerates and depressives is increasing each day, narcotics are the latest fashion candies, streets are swarming with junkies and repulsive hobos, AIDS has infiltrated syringes left on public benches. It flows along with drugs, sperm and tears into the veins of the Metropolis.
We are neither intellectuals nor politicians and don't have any message to pass on. We just want to FEEL, contemplate and ECHO the sound that the modern world and its absurdities have inspired us with.
Amesoeurs is a spit, the only way we have to spew out the anxiety and frustration tied to the difficulties of existence and the pursuit of happiness in our modern society.
