The French bands

[Steeve777]

In france we haven't a ''metal culture'' but since 20 years ago that musical way begin to popular. I thinks that funny to show you, our ''small'' metal experience. So this is an example of ''french band in any style of metal'' Don't laught about this
What do you speaks about ? I repeat, excuse my english...

neo and hardcore







and to the fan of death and black:




and two cult french band but most rock than metal



and in bonus

 

[Lord Kur]

we already know all about french music here

good scene especially black metal. it's weird you didn't mention deathspell omega

 

[Slayed Necros]

The old French Death Metal scene was great. Loudblast, Massacra, Mercyless, Agressor, Supuration, Crusher, Asgard, etc... Good stuff.

French Black Metal is massively overrated, but there's some good stuff amongst the legions of derivative, soulless clones.

 

[Zephyrus]

France is currently the hotbed of industrial black metal.

 

[Steeve777]

that's a surprise to me.... because i was thinking our music is unknow in the rest of world (except Europe of course) The Death ans Black aren't very popular in France nethertheless it true we had a good band.
(mutiilation ,vlad tepes ,torgeist ,belketre ,black murder, vermyapre komando, kristallnacht, crystallyum, blessed in sin, seigneur voland, misanthrope, argile, garwall ou encore count nosferatukommando, bélenos etc...)

France has had an awesome track record of metal in the last 5-7 years.

 

[Lord Kur]

It's the same way in the US that most metal bands aren't known to the popular culture.

Most of the French bm bands I've heard rule. DSO and Celestia are ridiculously good.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

We need more French forum members.

 

[Vossyrus]

France is my favourite country for music, and I'm not speaking only of black metal. Also, I enjoy many French films.

Celestia is so underrated. Great band. Have you heard the new releases?


France fucking rules. My dad as born and raised there, so naturally I have to go visit there every other year. Great place. A ton great bands come from France and will keep coming.

Personally it's very rare when i found a EP that interess me at fnac or virgin, other than i search for a long period. If you want a trick, there's some store near station ''les Halles'', in fact there's a lot of little store everywhere in Paris mixing goth/grind/death/black/emo... a little goddam mess in fact. In France the best solution to find interesting things it's mail-order selling... and there it's a deposit of treasure.

 

[XSASweet]

I think the only french bands i have on my playlist are Dagoba and Gojira, never really heard any of the french BM

 

[Faint]

KRONOS!! \m/\m/

France has loads of great bands.
