Album Details

Domestic pressing on Justin Time of one of 2004’s most interesting album featuring improved packaging and 2 unreleased bonus tracks!!

"Nouvelle Vague" is a French project by Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux. "Nouvelle Vague" ( means « New Wave « in French, « Bossa Nova » in Portuguese) revisits a number of both Marc and Olivier's favourite tracks of the early eighties, from Joy Division to XTC. Their idea was to forget the initial punk or new wave background of each song, keep simple fundamental chords, work with young singers who had never heard the orginal versions, and make the quality of original songwriting happen in a completely different way (Jazzy, Bossa Nova with a sixties pop sensibility).

Sortie domestique sur Justin Time de l’un des disques les plus interessants de 2004. Incluant 2 pièces inédites en bonus.

A travers leur projet NOUVELLE VAGUE, Marc Collin et Olivier Libaux, tous deux corréalisateurs de cet album, célèbrent la culture new-wave en proposant une lecture inédite de chansons écrites par des groupes reconnus (tels que Joy Division, The Clash ou The Cure) ou malheureusement un peu oubliés (comme XTC, Tuxedomoon, Modern English ou The Specials).
