Search - Georges Leningrad :: Deux Hot Dogs Moutarde Chou

Eduardo A. from NIAGARA FALLS, NY
Reviewed on 2/3/2011...

Les Georges Leningrad's debut blends the frenzied post-punk of early Section 25, the no-wave of the Contortions and DNA, and the synth-punk of early Tuxedomoon, but also updates these sounds for the digital age, adding grotesque vocals, distorted drum machines and electronic noise ("Lollipoplady", "Bad Smell", Didi Extra"). Spastic robotism prevails in "Georges V" and in the Residents cover "Constantinople", while too often they sabotage their grooves with noisy absurd instrumentation (as in the blues parody "Unimpermeable" or the quasi ethnic "Ccamcknenechn"). This insane energy and approach escapes the limits of mere imitation; Deux Hot Dogs is a worthy continuation of the post-punk program of the late 70's by a group of genuine fans and weirdos.

"Montreal based post melodic noise-avant- art punk band ( the influences are anything from space electronica to ecclictic world music). Spooky ,cohesive and with a very complex anti- aesthetic. THey sing in a combination of french german and english as well as tongues. goes well with a fine cognac and a revolver to the head................."

I love it and so does your inner child

"I saw these guys- they are amazing and worth all of your hot dog buns in the world. They get a thumbs up. Toes up. Belly up. Beer up. eyebrow high five cheer tonight at the ballroom club.



But maybe not for everyone. But I think they should be.



Eat your pinata stuffed with mushrooms now. not the tainted kind."
