Avignon, France (2000 – present)
Peste Noire is a medieval Black Metal band from Avignon, France, formed by La sale Famine de Valfunde in 2000. Famine has been the main member and creative force behind this band since its inception, and, to date, all songs (lyrics, music and solos) were written by Famine except for “La Césarienne“‘s music (on “Folkfuck Folie”) written by ex-member Neige, as well as some interludes on “Ballade cuntre lo Anemi francor” written by Audrey Sylvain. Peste Noire has always rejected the exposure of their music on the internet. There has never been any official PN website, nor any official PN myspace page. Some “fan pages” currently exist (/pestenoire, /pestenoiremetal etc.) but they are in no way official as they go against Famine’s vision of BM.
Band history:
Peste Noire was born in the mind of one La sale Famine de Valfunde who wrote all songs (except one), solos, lyrics, concepts for Peste Noire since its creation. The other members aren’t/have never been involved in the song-writing process but are/were always used as session musicians (Neige included) playing the music written by Famine. The different artworks were also chosen by and built around the ideas of one La sale Famine de Valfunde. The band offers a music which is in turn epic and melodic, sometimes more turbulent and aggressive, passionate and sorrowful and at times even openly sardonic. It always retains some degree of insanity and is generally raw, filthy and evocative of the atmosphere developed in France d’oïl in the Middle Ages.

I really do like how you quote yourself talking about me, it's quite hilarious. Let it go and talk about the band though, please? I'm embarrassed for you.

lol, what a weak attempt at turning the tables on me...I thought that your "powerful, intellectual mind" would have came up with something at least a little better than that.

Failures? Please man, you know not of my failures, or my successes in life. Just focus on graduating high school, kiddo. and AliveAsTheDead: thank you, this kid was bugging me to the point of changing my privacy settings, and I had to delete all of his stupid shouts from my page...he even had someone else try to step in and troll on my page, but I quickly blocked that account. He who cast the first stone is the one who is truly pathetic...

lol...it appears that you're the one who follows Wolfish_Rage's activity.....I see you following his shouts with sarcasm and insults on all sorts of bands...and with great persistence....perhaps you should "let go" and stop cyber stalking others...I wouldn't defend Wolfish_Rage if it weren't so evident that you are, infact, the one bugging him

Quoting yourself applying labels to me, interesting. Projecting your failures again? Grow up and give up on this silly grudge, it's pathetic really.

Lol, I had a feeling I would be hearing (or reading rather) from you again. I wish I had a blunt, haven't smoked one of those in the longest. Remember: Austrailia > New Zealand ;P

Put down the blunt and read what both you and he said again, child.

@Wolfish_Rage: "Now tell me something, if you own real albums, CD's or not (which by the way, I never spoke against them, fag), then why would you get offended by what I had to say? It simply does not apply to you man..." What you said was not "People you like PN should buy their albums" (which I would agree with)—what you said was, "Peste Noire does not belong on last.fm". I am aware of what Famine thinks; nevertheless, I think this sentiment is inane and speaks only of your desire to please. To wit, it makes you look like a sycophant, not a "true fan" or whatever you're pretending to be. Are you even beginning to understand yet?

"No one here will try to get in the way of your blatant Alcest fanboyship, PC tightwad!" Lolwhat? Were we talking about Alcest? I don't even like Alcest all that much—what does this have to do with anything? This shoutbox would be at least 50% less retarded without brainless fuckwads like Current666 hanging around. Go on, though, your broken-English nerdrage is hilarious.
