    on commence avec les WEIRDS BEIRDS, nouvelle formation des membres de POLAR STRONG et THE STRANGE HANDS, certains appellent ça du garage,
    ensuite GRUMPF QUARTET ou l'esthetisme de la brutalité, entre Paris et le Bearn, extremement puissant et delicat, certains appellent ça du metal,
    ONRTOUP se pose alors comme une fleur au milieu d'un champ de poutre, du punk, du metal, de la cocaine, les Motorheads français, une leçon de bon gout par les anciens membres de MINITEL,
    et enfin, la cerise sur le gateau, THE MEATARDS, patron du garage à viande bordelais s'occupera de decouper au hachoir les derniers survivant de la soirée, donc, si tu veux du sang, viens!

    VANDAVEER de retour à Bordeaux : en concert au Saint Ex avec CRÂNE ANGELS + NUNNA DAUL ISUNYI // MARDI 21 AVRIL // 6€







    VANDAVEER





    Commençons par le commencement. Je mange du poisson. J'adore le fromage. Je ne suis pas végetalien mais parfois je fais croire que je suis végétarien. En gros, je mange tout ce qui n'a pas marché ou couru avant d'arriver dans mon assiette. Si ça nage ou rampe c'est bingo.
    Mais pour répondre à ta question, je pense à la fois être le serpent et l'oiseau
    mais ni l'un ni l'autre. Tu piges? Tout dépend du point de vue adopté et de l'âge du capitaine.

    L'INTERVIEW ICI.


    NUNNA DAUL ISUNYI (ou TARIK ABDUL CHEYENNE) Fragilité folk sur le fil (du rasoir), pop barbue au poil doux.






    Les CRÂNE ANGELS sont la chorale pop-folk illuminée de Iceberg. On y retrouve Père Dodudaboum, Mr Crâne, Dr Cosmos, M.
    Botibol, Petit Fantôme, etc…
