Straight outta Montreal, Canada, Spleen is a one supergroup featuring members of local royalties such as punk bands Béton Armé and Puffer and black metal acts Conifère and Vespéral. Formed in 2022 and taking their name from Paris Spleen by Charles Baudelaire, they released their first cassette on Roachleg Records in 2023 delivering five post-punk cuts inspired by the colder aspect of French bands like Camera Silens, DEM and later-era Blitz. Having added a new, sixth member on synthesizer, their second demo was released on Roachleg again just one month ago, taking on new influences from 60's and 80's psych garage rock and developing a unique sound not easily categorizable. Not unlike the latest Duke of Oi! EP by Criminal, picture French skankin' punk rockers from the 80s (I'm thinking Identité X) meeting somewhere cold with the California dreamers from the Paisley Underground (The Dream Syndicate, of course) and you'll get the vibe. And if you think this is odd for people playing also in Oi and BM groups just remember that Blitz first covered Lou Reed's Vicious back in 1982 so you should not be surprised. With everything just said we simply couldn't back out of pressing both EPs on one tasty 12" vinyl compilation, one demo per side, with new sci-fi-influenced artwork by the band's own Dan and Mathias. Genre: Alternative / Post-Punk
