Trop Tard
Ils Étaient 9 Dans L'obscuritÉ
Fabien and Philippe, two of the original members of TROP TARD (French for Too late) were previously recording music as Les Cures (The Cured), mixing distorted voices, guitar, synth and various noises. When they met Damien, after a short time the projects name was changed to Trop Tard and the sound now included also a drum-machine and a bass guitar to accompany the vocals and various sounds based on recordings of rough noise, transformed into melodies. As the 3 members all agreed, that mainstream music was too repetitive, they were trying hard to create a sound that was far from the usual structures of pop music. One of this Cold Wave acts most respected project is PSYCHIC TV for their continuous search for new interpretation of musical rules and laws. This album features all 13 tracks of their only LP release 'Ils Etaient 9 Dans L'Obscurité' plus the 12 tracks of their first, self-released debut-cassette 'Photodrame.' All 25 tracks thus appear for the first time ever on CD!
