Astéréotypie

"No guy looks like Brad Pitt in the Drôme... Real life is irritating!” These are the words of Claire Ottaway, the new recruit of Astéréotypie, an energetic post-punk band that sometimes veers towards garage-rock. Born in 2010 in an institute for special needs, this remarkable band is back with a third album made of atypical lyrics and lunar phrasing that attract the ear and embark us on a highly emotional expedition. Encountering the Astéréotypie collective shakes things up. Hips sway when the band takes off, arms shake at each scansion or tempo break, they get you to howl in chorus to the point of straining your vocal cords, and shatter any prejudices that may have existed. No band is like Astéréotypie in the Drôme…Real life can be delightful!
