Bordeaux, France (1985 – 2010)
Noir Désir was a french rock band. The band was founded in Bordeaux, France, in 1985 by singer Bertrand Cantat, drummer Denis Barthe, guitarist Serge Teyssot-Gay and bassist Frédéric Vidalenc (replaced in 1996 by Jean-Paul Roy). Over the years, they became famous in France, releasing albums every few years.
Theo Hakola from Passion Fodder produced their first LP in 1987 Où veux-tu qu’je r’garde ?. This 6 tracks album shows what would become a Noir Désir trademark: finely crafted lyrics with powerful rock sound.
Noir Désir’s second album, Veuillez rendre l’âme (à qui elle appartient), released in 1990, introduced punk rock elements to their sound. This continued with their next album, Tostaky, which contained the successful songTostaky.
One of the most popular rock groups in France, their success continued with the release of the dance-influenced 666.667 Club, and the remix album One Trip One Noise. Their last album, 2001’s des Visages des Figures, was a slower, more ambitious affair. This album also contained a collaboration with a fellow francophone Manu Chao. “Des visages, des figures” was the album of the consecration for the group which won the music award (Victoire de la Musique) of the best rock album of year 2002, as well as the award of best clip for “Le Vent Nous Portera”. Although their last album seemed to be the slowest one, the following gigs were huge rock shows where thousands of fans came to see the group.
