Dark-alternative-rock from London.
teevo (singer/bass) from France (Paris). Born in in Paris. Lives in London since 2000 , met Tom (Guitars/vocals-British) in 2002 while Steevo was living a rock n roll life in different squats in London , they asked Rob (Drummer,Irish) to join them in 2003 and they formed "ze" band.
Their music is inspired by the like of The Cure, Nirvana , Joy Division,Cinema Strange,The velvet underground,Nico,Placebo,Pixies, Sonic Youth, Siouxsie,Rage Against the Machine ,She wants revenge,Ladytron, Radiohead and some French music like Serge Gainsbourg,Noir Desir,Les Rita Mitsouko ...And their own rock' n' roll life!
They got signed with an indie label from London(Criminal Records) in 2004 ,not to bad Steevo:Got signed with his first band after his first gig!They released in 2005 their first EP :
"Criminal Infection ".
This includes 6 excellent tracks laid with heavy bass, sexy vocals and great songs that you can't sit still through. Lead of track "Buzzing Dude" is a true classic with a back to back vocals of Steevo and Tom in a slanging match "I think they suck ; I think you suck!". Music well ahead of its time ,Les Figurines confirm their alternative edge with their must have EP.
Rock'n'roll they know, rock'n'roll they live.
