Solidaire

Inspired by groups such as The Comsat Angels, The Manic Street Preachers, Suede, The Sound, and For Against, Blacklist is simultaneously celebratory and melancholy, replacing the hysterical protest song of the 20th century with anthems for a new generation weaned on amusement and starved for confrontation. In today's world of faith-based violence, global disjunctures, and volatile identity politics, they create the soundtrack to an explosive resistance. The snide refusal of nihilism makes a loud and heavy romantic sound.

Solidaire is a warning shot EP, readying audiences for their upcoming. Featuring the propulsive cosmological love anthem, 'Blue Shifted,' the filthy, sexy ode to George Orwell and P.O.U.M., 'Shock In The Hotel Falcon,' and their version of one of the classic tracks of the French coldwave, 'Pure Joy In My Heart,' Solidaire is a taste of things to come. Cosmopolitan coldwave rock and roll, bridging the gap between the north of France and Budokan, from the pathologically mobilized world outside to the elusive human experience.
