You take me by surprise I had never heard of you Were you planning my demise ? You open up your eyes I had never seen the like of this big black paradise When the party was through I thought about me and you Which is not the kind of thing I usually do Don't be so nice to me baby There's a soft heart in the way Every smile you give is an invitation to pray Can't you see what you're doing to me I can't stop love When everytime you look at me has a taste of possibility You take me by the hand You laugh at my stupid jokes But uncertainty remains Cuz baby i don't know you You were a stranger on a pile of strangers And I had no clue I wish I knew what I am to you A friendly footnote in your heart Or am I maybe the one who could play his part ? Don't be so nice to me baby There's a soft heart in the way Every smile you give is an invitation to pray Can't you see what you're doing to me I can't stop love When everytime you look at me has a taste of possibility Don't be so nice to me baby Can't you see what you're doing to me Cuz everytime you look at me has a taste of possibility

As you're trying to find your way across the heatblast Mojave Waste, Mojave Wasteland The winner takes it all but it's not enough He needs to shatter 'til the spirit is gone and forgotten Factions full of weapons Amputated children and much more Tell me what they're dying for Don't tell me you don't know that the murderer mourns again I've got something on my mind and I really need to tell a friend, oh yeah And when you're all alone like a murderer who mourns again You make such a pleasant sight my friend As you shackle the chains of slumber as the day breaks Chewing gum for the eyes and a bowl of cornflakes This war's too far away so I need not care But we'll go hand in hand in hell there's no other way Outrage is defeated When slavery remains untreated Tell me what we're living for Don't tell me you don't know that the murderer mourns again I've got something on my mind and I really need to tell a friend And when you're all alone like a murderer who mourns again You make such a pleasant sight my friend Don't tell me you don't know that the murderer mourns again It's never been so easy to feel like a breaker of chains And when you're all alone like a murderer who mourns again You make such a pleasant sight my friend

Chinese Town 05:45
I turn to the rising sun whenever I'm down I hear a voice that lifts me from the ground Baby why did you have to leave for a chinese town ? Cuz i cannot escape the desire to drown in your head I feared, after all this time, we would be apart But we, oh we should know better we embedded our hearts Baby don't go to Singapore Ain't got time to learn semaphore I turn to the rising sun whenever I'm down Baby why did you have to leave for a faraway town Cuz i cannot escape the desire to drown in your head Baby why did you have to leave for a chinese town ? Baby why did you have to leave ? Baby don't go to Singapore Ain't got time to learn semaphore

I wanna slow dance Rest my face Back in a party memory Pictures in my head Late night, shimmering A glimpse of you dancing on my screen Makes me feel alive again I don't care Let's just stay in bed I don't care Cuz you've been stuck inside my head Don't wanna replay Mistakes we've made And I don't wanna love you on my own Through a half-cracked telephone I don't care Let's just stay in bed I don't care Cuz you've been stuck inside my head When I wake up by your side I just wanna ride your tender lips Remember all the times I gave you my pride right 'round your hips Wake up by your side 
I just wanna ride Wake up by your side I just wanna die Wake up by your side Wake up by your side Wake up by your...

Did we have to fight ? It's such a waste of time And I care about mine D'you remember why ? Cuz I've been searching in my mind
 And there I didn't find any lie After all this time Living in each other's arms I remember how Your hair was playing on your smile The first time I saw them untied Can't survive The time we spend apart You're my healthiest addiction And I don't want to quit now Your hair's a benediction Circling all around you I'm your craziest affliction But you don't seem to care now You give me your affection I try to make it even somehow After all the cigarettes Foolish wheezing bets You stay by my side In spite of everything I hide When I'm with you I don't need my pride Can't forget the time We stayed alive Can't ever forget The time we went To Broadway Lafayette I will always remember The sickening bet we made with the indian alphabet Can't ever forget The time we went To Broadway Lafayette You're my healthiest addiction And I don't want to quit now Your hair's a benediction Circling all around you honey I'm your craziest affliction But you don't seem to care now You give me your affection I try to make it even somehow I'm far from perfection It's no use to deny I stutter like a Gatling gun T-t-trying to break to you baby Trying to break to you baby Trying to break to you baby Trying to break to you baby Oh Baby, Baby

GPS 03:02
I never thought I would go through this I'm walking along an impossible abyss I'm spending my days waiting for a sign But I know I'm not welcome in her mind Sicknesses come and go that's all I know And sometimes you get a cold and a new love get ahold But it's only fool's gold Oh but did that make me bold I don't know where I'm going I'm in need of direction She's just broken my GPS I'm in love give me your adress Should I even have the right to hope When my heart is sliding a betrayal slope Believe that all this shit will end I'll come back to you she'll only be a friend Sicknesses come and go that's all I know But wherever my mind goes ends on a north eastern shore Too far from your door Oh but did that make me bold I don't know where I'm going I'm in need of direction She's just broken my GPS I'm in love give me your adress I don't know I don't know where I'm going I'm in need of direction She's just broken my GPS I'm in love give me your adress

Spring time is around again Blooming on the ground Sleets have come and now they are gone Flowers fill the air But I don't feel that great about that situation You'll learn to your sorrow hayfever ain't fun I've been sneezing a lot I cannot hold the snot My eyes are itching a lot But there's a ventolin above Sneezing a lot I cannot hold the snot My eyes are itching a lot There's a ventolin above Every trees and flowers an enemy They're growing all around me Besieging my nose Motherfucking rose The pollination nation invasion Of sinuses and eyes Has begun we must prepare, supply Lest we shall be chastised So hear my call to arms Refuse those fraudulent spring time charms In cetirizine arms we won't suffer no harm I've been sneezing a lot I cannot hold the snot My eyes are itching a lot but there's a ventolin above Sneezing a lot I cannot hold the snot My eyes are itching a lot But there's a ventolin above I wake up in the middle of the night My breath is getting shorter But my privilege is white My breath will last forever I wake up in the middle of the night My breath is getting shorter My privilege is white My breath will last forever

You wear it on your face You wear it like it was a disgrace But brother does it really matter ? Sometimes you have to let other people matter I know you have a dream I know how it feels I too do need some space But I won't ever want to take your place Don't make me feel sorry There's no reason I should be Cuz brother I've been in your stead Remember, throughout those days you were way ahead But now this day is new And I've worked my way through Could you feel bad about that ? Cuz you look like I had broken a pact Don't be mad Time to share I'm alive It feels right Now that you are gone It seems like things feel a little less wrong But brother don't you be mistaken Sometimes I wish I had someone like you to happen Well you can be a pain But for this I don't blame We'll always find a way We're bound to love brother we're made the same way Don't be mad (Tell me again why you think I've wronged you) Time to share (It sounds like what I've always felt about you) I'm alive (Tell me again oh please tell me again) It feels right Tell me again why you think I've wronged you It sounds like what I've always felt about you Tell me again oh please tell me again It sounds like what I've always failed to tell you I didn't know you'd take it the wrong way I didn't plan on frightening you I never thought it would lead you astray The plan was just to see us through I thought you'd take it as a stimulation At first I thought you were simulating It was meant to be fair competition But you ran away and it was done I didn't know you'd take it the wrong way I didn't plan on frightening you I never thought it would lead you astray The plan was just to see us through I thought you'd take it as a stimulation At first I thought you were simulating It was meant to be fair competition Nothing new under the sun I didn't know you'd take it the wrong way I didn't plan on frightening you I never thought it would lead you astray The plan was just to see us through I thought you'd take it as a stimulation At first I thought you were simulating 
But you ran away and it was done I don't know what went through your head Making me feel like I had blood on my hands

Radio 03:11
8 o'clock waking up after a 4 hour sleep I've got a very long day c-c-c-coming at me They say I don't work enough but I cannot remember When was the last time I had time to only think about her They're singing me the same song of eternal youth But I'm already getting older and a hole in my tooth They're saying I'm the lucky one cuz I've got a job But I would really like to see what they could do when I'm gone I've gotta tell you these days I just don't know what to do Because I've fallen for a girl who isn't better than you They say I don't work enough but I cannot remember when was the last time I had greater feelings to temper She hits me like Kung Fu and strikes me down I think about her all the time I think I'm gonna drown She's lasting like cancer, comes back all the time She's like the last thing I have need for but she must be mine Turn up the sound of the radio I need a motivation that keeps me going I've got no time to say hello I'm too late for my life I've gotta catch it up I'm too late for my life I've gotta catch it up I'm too late for my life I've gotta catch it up We don't fit There's nothing to do about it We can't quit We're so close, so close We're not fit There's nothing to do about it We can't quit We're too far to make it Turn up the sound of the radio I need a motivation that keeps me going I've got no time to say hello I'm too late for my life I've gotta catch it up I'm too late for my life I've gotta catch it up I'm too late for my life I've gotta catch it up

about

The journey for this record began in Brittany in Joseph’s family house by the sea. We got there in February/March 2021 to write new songs, jam old ones and record quick demos. After we got back to Paris, we let those demos rest for a while so we could return to them with a fresh ear and continued working on them throughout the rest of the year. We went to a proper studio early 2022 to record all the drums, bass, guitars and vocals, then finished producing the record in our home studio in Paris.

Apart from David Cukier who engineered the studio sessions and mixed most of the album, we produced the record ourselves. It was a deliberate decision from the start because we wanted to have full control over every aspect of this record and we also wanted to challenge ourselves. We then had the singles mixed by Nathan Boddy who stands out as one of the best mixers in the UK, notably for his work with Nilüfer Yanya, Shame or Mura Masa.

We draw our inspiration from many things.
Lyrics are mostly inspired by our own lives, our feelings and relationships. They seem to be the easiest things to write about and to share. However we also tried to talk about more earthly and broad matters like cheap rebelliousness, modern slavery and the widespread plague that is hay fever.

As for the music itself, we have always remained true to our pop DNA as far as the songwriting is concerned. We believe that pop is first and foremost a way to write songs and that you can apply any sound and genre you like to a well-written song. We also try as much as possible not to repeat ourselves and don't restrain ourselves in terms of soundscape. That's why we strive to explore the potentialities of these songs by applying them to all kinds of genres and styles we're into at the moment. You'll hear 2-step garage, krautrock, power-pop, freak folk, synthpop, disco or post-punk in A Taste of Possibility.

This record is our response to covid and how it deeply affected us as musicians and darkened the future for our whole generation.
Like the cover suggests : songs are uplifting, bright, solar, full of optimism. We created them in a special time in our lives, in a peaceful and comforting house by the sea. We had time to reflect on what the pandemic did to us as a band and the entire music industry. Based on this experience, we could have written a deeply sad and anxious record but we chose to be hopeful instead as it’s been printed in our DNA from the start : we keep dancing no matter what happens.
It’s full of our dreams and hopes for the future, but also a bit of our struggles and broken hearts, which makes them even more treasurable.
It’s everything you would expect from a great pop record.
Hopefully it will take the listeners on an emotional journey, help them escape their daily lives for 41 minutes.
