Line Up: (Post Punk - FR)
JE T'AIME: for these few letters, some live, some go mad, but above all, many die.
Live until you go mad, live until you die - that's the credo of the cold-wave trio whose spirited spleen sprang from the muggy basements of Parisian nightlife in 2018. While the classic post-punk and new wave influences are obviously there, the driving rain that falls on these three anti-heroes is tinged with the flashing colors of neon lights and their artificial heat. JE T'AIME stirs up your guts as much as your hindrances, and blows the codes with a jubilant, touching snarl.
After a self-titled debut album released in 2019 on Manic Depression and Icy Cold Records, the band signed the diptych PASSIVE/AGGRESSIVE in 2022, choosing Valentine's Day and All Souls' Day to release both parts. In the few years of its existence, JE T'AIME has rocked audiences at Belgium's W-Fest, Poland's Castle Party Festival, England's Infest Festival, Portugal's Extramuralhas and Germany's Wave Gotik Treffen... If Europe has to learn a few French words, it might as well be “JE T'AIME”.
