THIS IS D.E.V.I.A.N.C.E. BABY !

d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e. is one of the main music bands that I’m following very closely for my documentary Rock ‘n’ Roll Girls, but it’s not a rock band at all. The common point between d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e. and rock music is that, the two  members of the band, Akasha “Sick” Lust and So. Noel, are also playing in the girls rock band IKU (So. is the drummer of IKU ; Akasha is the lead singer, bassist and one of the main composer). In d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e., Akasha and So. are both music composers, lyriscists and they sing as well.  

 

Formed in February 2007,  d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e. music style could be described as a mix between electronic music, trip hop and spoken words with uncompromising strong lyrics related to the personal experiences of both artists. Among the different inspirations of d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e., you’ll find universal subjects like alcohol, sex, suicide, illness, violence, chaos, madness etc...

 

They started to record their first album in September 2007 (it’s called simply d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e.) and they made it available for the first time on May 3 rd, 2008 at the opening of the 2 nd edition of the underground French festival, Vag1 Kao (Wordplay which means “Chaos Vagina”).

 

On that day, d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e. played live in public for the first time and it was for sure, the highlight of this festival, where there were also two other music performances (Noise improvisations by Lust Control and Evil Moisture) + the exhibition of  painting, photographs, serigraphs, mouldings, etc... created by Akasha Lust, So. Noel, Andy Bogus, Bughead and M.Abloom.  

 

Here is the track-listing of d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e.album, mixed and recorded by Alex Anger(singer of French grunge band Anadyomène):

On 10th of May 2008, one day after the end of the festival Vag1 Kao, a new photoshoot of d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e.was organised. In the second of the three series of photos taken by Fanny (co-programmer of the festival Vag1 Kao), Akashaand So. are posing in front of their work (paintings, masks etc...). You can check the whole behind the scenes gallery of this photo session HERE.Also, two of the d.e.v.i.a.n.c.e. tracks will be available on the CD soundtrack of “ Plaintes Contre X” (Complaint Against X) , which  is not a movie but the first book written by So. Noel, which will be released in France at the end of 2008 (or the beginning of 2009).This intense “drug story”, in the vein of Trainspotting, Requiem for a Dream and Spun, is an autobiographical novel (inspired by true events at 90%) about a rock ‘n’ roll journalist who learns that she got multiple sclerosis.  This novel will be illustrated by photos of Lu.Bo., artwork of Sick Lustand draws by SylPlaintes Contre X” soundtrack will also contain songs by IKU, Anadyomène, Kinesin, Le Collector, Lust Control, Laamdatün and No Rest 4 the BraveHere is a video teaser of the “ PCX” project directed by Kinesin...
