Hi xltronic, long time no spam, ha, ha.
Here are my latest songs, they are songs with singing. It is a daring new musical direction and I hope you'll enjoy it.
You can listen to some of them on my myspace profile, or you can download Mp3s of Better Quality:
Philippe Pétain sur France 3 - my latest one Nazi qui a le SIDA - is supposedly cute and summery My Green Shirt - an epic, not on myspace
You may also listen to the songs of Révolution Musicale, it is my band and it can be your band too.

your links are a lie
but I'll just listen on myspace
phillipe pétain: you made the out-of-tune-ness work for you on this one, baby! It's great! You may need to do some work on the vocals (post processing, eq or something, I don't actually know what to do, but I feel there's something (purely technical) wrong). I may have anticipated the loud part if I knew french, but I don't know. It's kind of late here, so I'll have to listen to this and the rest of them at a low volume so as to not disturb people. I may miss details.
nazi qui: it isn't really anything special, just one of those songs.
my green shirt: this is great! Maybe overdub your voice or something, but other than that great!
would a translation of lyrics ruin the artistic intentions or will I be able to know what the songs are about?
not to outspam you, but I think you may liket my cousins stuff, Kanossa gang and Stonxyblot Proxy...

Philippe Pétain: Yay, the out-of-tune-ness is really what I was going for and I'm glad you like it. I think the vocals sound alright. This was mixed on crappy laptop speakers and I'm surprised by how good it sounds, really. The lyrics are a moderately random collage of rhetoric, politics and various things on the Internet ("I am unable to come when making love, what should I do? Is it my parents' fault or that of the government?"). The loud part is totally gratuitous. The lyrics preceding it are "that chemical stuff, I'm not sure; it would be better to be able to get cured with apples".
Nazi: I think this one is actually very strange, because everything is played so sloppily. Concentrate on the drums, it's a total mess and I like it. The lyrics are about how the proletariat should melt the faces of the bourgeois and chew their guts until their teeth fall out and their heads split open because they chewed the guts with such great abnegation.
Green Shirt: I'm actually very unhappy with the vocals on this one, and I think I'll re-record them. There might be overdubs. The lyrics are about Antoine Gontrand, who would like to be a flower but is only unable to look like a houseplant thanks to his green shirt ("You don't need to become vegetable / Don't have the pride of wanting to transcend your humanity / Your shirt is cool, it's green and that's what counts / Green is the colour of serenity")
I'm off to Metz for the weekend and I'll listen to your cousins when I'm back.
Kisses.

my god man, the songs are pretty good but JESUS can't you learn to play guitar in time?
And how hard is it to make a guitar sound reasonable? Yours is so twangy and horrid.
Flick the switch on it to a different pickup, put a dash of reverb on it, and learn to play in time to your drums. Then you have an ace tune.

I'm sorry, this is actually how I want it to sound. :(
I recorded the guitar by plugging it into my laptop's mic port. The drums were recorded afterwards and played in Fruityloops with my computer keyboard. It's pretty awesome really.
I made this this weekend, it's a cover of U2's With or Without You in French: Révolution Musicale - Avec ou sans toi
Thanks friends

You might also notice that my synth sounds are twangy and horrid as well, which is very coherent and commendable.
