Shop - Opéra Multi Steel – El​é​gies M​é​morielles (IC027)

Description

Industrial Complexx pays tribute to Opéra Multi Steel for their 40th anniversary. The French band, originally formed in the winter of 1982 and 1983 by Frank Lopez, Patrick L. Robin and Catherine Marie, has lived through 3 different stages throughout its career, and although it had other members such as Eric Milhiet and Xavier Martin among its ranks for a while, nowadays the line-up is composed of the founding members of the project.

Elégies Mémorielles is an album that shows after four decades a renewed style but also faithful to the original sound of the band. Called one of the main pioneer bands of French coldwave, their special use of medieval elements and the use of the French language as the only language used in their lyrics makes this band unique.

Elégies Mémorielles is published together with a book that tells the story of this band, with the collaboration of people such as Alex Twin, owner of the Brazilian labels Museum Obscuro and Wave Records, the French journalist Clément Marchal, and the also French Alexandre Louis, owner of Infrastition, Stanislas Chapel, owner of Meidosem Records, and Pedro Peñas Robles, owner of Unknown Pleasures Records.
