Yeah there was a French rock thread already. I'll say it again: it's all about Soggy.

why does baaderonixx always want to yawn

(Answer: for good reason.)

There have been a slew of pretty good French metal bands in the last decade, though I'll let the experts in the field speak to that more.

They already have, on that other thread

French metal just sounds wrong. Like Vermont grime.

Cruel of him to bury the guy from The Residents in the sand like that though

― Tom D., Wednesday, 13 August 2008 16:15 (eighteen years ago)

From the little bits I have actually heard Ned is pretty OTM about French metal.

They seem to have a pretty virulent strain of post-Libertines leather jacket indie at the moment, although I'm not sure if I'm posting for the defence or the prosecution

Why no French rock n roll?
