Translated from the original French
But of course!! "Papillon" really is a French word!! What?? A WM band that sings in French? Well yeah, and they are from right here at home!! MEDIATOR has the merit of daring to turn the sound up, and of exploring Christian hard "made in France" for the first time. Admittedly, this three-track demo does not bring the house down... Generally speaking, let us say that in the demo's mix, the "metal" (hard's whole reason for being) is too little in evidence. One would have liked to hear more of the guitar work of Michelk (lead) and of Gaetan (rhythm). The demo is far from being without interest (see the lead guitar work on the slow "Ceci est une prière"). But tracks such as "Papillon" and "Génération" are really short on beef, and on bite... Certainly the next demo will be more rock-solid; in any case, that is our wish for the band! Be that as it may, we write to them, we encourage them, and we order this demo "Papillon" from them (3 tracks / + photo. Semi-pro cover) - 35
Other coverage for this album
Heaven's Metal #16Reviewed by Doug Van PeltOut of France comes a hard-rockin' band for Jesus. All their lyrics are in their mother language. The music is pretty good. The last song, "Ceci est une priere (This Is a Prayer)," has a really beautiful melodic guitar throughout. The chorus is great (I can only tell because they sent me a lyric translation): "Jesus is calling you. Repent/ Jesus is calling you. Repent." The band lists Stryper,…Similar sounding releases
