Trop Tard – Les Choses Qu’On N’Oublie Pas

[soundcloud url=”http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/59559012″ params=”visual=true&liking=false&sharing=false&auto_play=false&show_comments=false&continuous_play=false” width=”100{c78b1a64dac6ce50a7c652ec3815911a7fb7fabb7e618ba199999cc6fb199c59}” height=”500″ iframe=”true” /]

The second Trop Tard release, Ils Etaient 9 Dans L’Obscurité, continues in the same sorrowful vein as its predecessor, Photodrome, but with a much clearer sound, having been recorded in a small studio. The piercing shards of the simplistic guitar and wicked bursts of electronics complement the ennui of the vocals on this rare record. Sacred Bones is excited to be making this album available to the world in a limited edition of 700 deluxe lp format.

“Trop Tard” is a French term translating to “too late”. It is also the name of one of the darkest and most elusive bands to come out of Europe. For nearly a quarter century the music of Trop Tard has been lost to the world, trapped in the icy expanse of mid-80s provincial France. The trio self released Photodrame k7(1987) and Ils Etaient 9 Dans L’Obscurité LP (1988) in extremely limited editions that likely saw little if any distribu- tion outside of their native France. Yet these are two of the true coveted jewels in the crown of the French Cold Wave. Also known as La Vague Froide, the movement was inspired by inspired by British post-punk and legendary producer Martin Hannett, creator of Manchester’s Factory Records sound. Looking back now, 25 years later, Trop Tard stands as one of the purest embodiments of its Romantic spirit.

6. No Time to Be 21

Les mauvais choix, les mauvaises actions, les os qui plient. “Si c’était à refaire…” mais refaire surtout les mêmes erreurs. S’en vouloir, mais éviter la fuite. Absorber. Descendre, descendre, descendre. Choisir les synthétiseurs et s’attaquer soi-même. Se dire «fuck off», revivre et changer. Le son des jours qui viennent à bout des plus violents regrets.

Bad choices, bad actions, bending bones. “If I could just start over…” only to make the same mistakes. I blame myself, but I won’t flee. I’ll absorb. Go down, go down, go deeper. I’ll choose the synthesizers and attack myself. Tell myself to fuck off, live again and change. The sound of days that manage to overcome the most violent of regrets.
