Cheveu's french band is reviewed by Byron Coley in the last WIRE issue :
Cheveau
clara vénus/superhero sdz/royal 7"
Dog/Make my day s-s 7"
"France's cheveau have an excellent grasp on a very French post-punk dynamism, devolved in a lopsided way from progenitors such as Metal urbain, warum joe and Berurier noir. Their sound is both less and more mechanical than the suggests.
In the sense that the drumming is "real" (at least I think it is), and that the keyboard seem more robotic than the suggests. But whatever their model, these guys produce a superior guitar raunch with great memble mystery moves. This power is amplified on the Dog/Make my day 7", which was actually an earlier release (I think). The primitivism here is less fully integrated, but still lush enough to make you fall over."
oh, one song here is in french : "clara venus" (words by Rimbaud)
