On the invitation of Métal Intégral, about one hundred fans invested the Brin de Zinc for a Birthday Night aiming one to celebrate fifteen years of defense of the Heavy by our association. Three groups, BLACKLOAD, CEPHEE LYRA and HEAVYLUTION, figured in the poster of an evening marked by the good mood and the favorite love of our music. The band his apéritif announced this beautiful mood, with notably extracts of a Appetite For Destruction (GUNS N’ ROSES) idealized by the remarkable system hi-fi of the Renault Laguna of Christophe, drummer of BLACKLOAD !
IT IS exactly to BLACKLOAD that it returns, some time around 21 o'clock, to open the show by a devastating one Sweet Virginia, extracts album Bayou (2010) signed CHEMICAL WEDDING. It is a matter of a very special concert for the native of Grenoble group, the first one since the disappearance of his bass player Camille MARQUET here near of a year. Courageously, the formation decided to follow its activities under the name of BLACKLOAD, which allows us aujourd’hui to take advantage so of the created catalog with Camille that of new compositions. Sitôt it inaugural finished title, Bevy addresses him a moving one dedicates, before proposing another entitles of Bayou, Close My Eyes.
BLACKLOAD book a highly energetic benefit, characterized by a rhythmic implacable one and on the part of guitar to tendency Grunge/Stoner interpreters by Serge on his Epiphone Zakk WYLDE. Having had knowledge of the set list, I there discover a title, Down By The River, that evokes me instantly the Blues. The singer attacks it effectively as an authentic one bluesman ; nevertheless, the piece moves away itself quickly of the standard ones of the Mississipi, transforming itself in a true scathing article. In end together, the musicians reveal other aspects of their sonorous palette with the power ballad Those Days – that Bevy describes as an attempt mainstream – or again French Blues 2012, that tinted itself of Rock Confederate one.
during this set excessive, two returns will equally be proposed, Handful Of Rain (SAVATAGE) and the piano voice Someone Else (QUEENSRYCHE). The latter is played while Serge grasps another Epiphone, his Zakk WYLDE undergoing a benign malfunction. The spirit of the live was thus preserved!
On a personal plan, I was equally very happy to make the acquaintance the group, that did me gift of a copy of Bayou. I passed in particular an excellent moment with Serge, to the course of which we very quickly noticed ourselves to devote both of them a big admiration to the scene that did the magnitude of Seattle during the nineties, and in particular an immense affection for Layne STALEY (ALICE IN CHAINS).
Fact after the return of BLACKLOAD, the members of CEPHEE LYRA arrivals successively on scene to the sound of The Dream Within A Dream, extracts B.O. ofInception. They propose a Metal progressive, lorgnant sometimes towards the Thrash - the riffs martial and the harmonic ones of A Matter Of Personal Worth - where the low one to 5 ropes ofAurélien appears very present. The rhythmic stampede Lost In A Controversial Mind brings a first indication of the technical level of Sylvain, unparalleled guitarist able absolutely staggering solos (Shelter Of Time).
On the vocal plan, Maud if s’illustre majority in a register engraves, rather enchanting, while realizing uniformly of superb lyric flown ones away: a style notably represented by Deeper Into Rage. On the final one of A Matter Of Personal Worth, the singer exceptionally is supported by a guitar in his clear one. This party constitutes an appeasement moment in a besides piece comparatively heavy. During his show, CEPHEE LYRA will have interpreted several of its classics, of which some originate of his album A Sinner’s Loneliness gone out in 2010 - Deeper Into Rage, Lost In A Controversial Mind – but equally an extract of a EP to appear, Not A Second More. At last, the taste of the formation for the parody is revealed by a bonus track, qualified of "jokes" and of "riddle" by Maud : this improbable title, to Celtic influences, is pulled of The Soup To The Cabbages.
Regular of the places, the Stéphanois of HEAVYLUTION comings notably to defend their last album, The Architect (2011). Paul sports a t-shirt to the colors of MEGADETH, while the low BC Rich ofAlexis gives rise to enthusiasm on one hand of the assistance. As much of warning signs of the flood of Heavy Metal that will follow. The group in fact clearly is influenced by IRON MAIDEN : on a rhythmic one in armed concrete put themselves guitars of which the motives mélodiques (The All Seeing Eyes, originating recent one LP) and the solos offer a revival NWOBHM.
regarding song, Paul favors us with a dazzling benefit. Consecrating itself for two years to the vocal parties – to the beginnings of the formation, it officiait to the guitar and to the microphone – it posts an exceptional mastery of the sharp ones that recalls instantly his model Bruce DICKINSON. With a frontman of such a talent, HEAVYLUTION can allow themselves to include in environment of set Aces High, classical among the most exacting ones of the iron Virgin! Beginning by a scream, Dream Paranoïa constitutes the piece more heavy of the set. The musicians offer of more a return of T.N.T. ofAC/DC : Paul shows themselves all so brilliant one on this standard one, that allows him to let the public participate. Since it is a matter to divide voices, let's note that Paco rejoined his friend on Dehumanization, conclusion of a benefit that leaves the public conquer.
Flasks the three groups to the poster, Métal Intégral had foreseen a surprise to close the evening. It was a matter to greet Tom, guitarist ofICE SCREAM called under of other skies, the Peruvian Skies dear ones to DREAM THEATER. Stressing the festive dimension of this testimony of friendship, all the members of CEPHEE LYRA, with the exception of Maud, come to interpret Avantasia, when Paul climbs on scene for the always noticeable one Tears Of A Mandrake. Alas, the set ofICE SCREAM, delayed by technical problems then abruptly shortened, had to limit itself to these two titles. Exit therefore Lavatory Love Machine, the remarkable Sign Of The Cross, as well as the tubes Living On A Prayer (BON JOVI) and Youth Gone Wild (SKID ROW). The concert takes therefore fine on a disillusion grade, the musicians and the fans being deprived pleasure, for the first ones to play, for the seconds to hear, representative classics of the shows frequently given ones by the group in these walls. It is really damage, in particular for Tom, that this beautiful adventure comes to an end sort…
