About

French industrial rock band founded in 1993 and hailing from Melun, a suburb of Paris.

The group, comprised of keyboardist/songwriter/leader Vincent Brunello, singer Franck Renou, and guitarist Damien Barquero, released their debut album "Noisy Pipes Lovely Noises" in 1998 on Virgin. After a change of label (Recall), a second album titled "Errare Digital Est" followed in 2002.
In 2003, "Reconstructed Singles", an album of remixes and previously unreleased tracks revisited by, among others, the German industrial band Oomph! was released.
Many of their tracks were featured in the video games V-Rally 2 & Need for Speed: Underground 2; a Paco Rabanne advertising campaign for the perfume XS, directed by Bruno Aveillan; and on the soundtracks of films The Crow 3: Salvation, Transporter 2, Lovers, Les Aliénés, Dédales.
In November 2007, the band announced on their official forum that a third album was in preparation (but remains unreleased to this day), along with a change of line-up, Kyrill Nikitin replacing Damien Barquero on guitar.
Singer Franck Renou tragically died on May 21, 2010 at the age of 35 from a road accident.
The band's last release was a DVD of their live/documentary film "K3" in 2011, which was filmed in Kazakhstan and included a number of performances from their last 2008–2009 tour. A digital only live album called "K3 (Music excerpted from)" was released simultaneously.
Vincent Brunello worked on industrial band LTNO's second album "Sea, Sex & Burn" and later joined goth metal band Lycosia, co-composing (while also adding an industrial edge to their sound) & producing their 2006 album "Apokalipstik" (Equilibre Music, Araknid Records).
