Takane [EN] Vincent Poliquin

"He wiped his sweaty forehead with his forearm, then cleared back his long wet mop of hair. He approached the microphone which captured his heavy breathing, firmly grasped it and shouted: 'We are TAKANÉ!'"Here is the humble and sincere account of the infancy of the band TAKANÉ, which will become the figurehead of the most important heavy metal movement; driven by these boys, vulgar but brilliant and engaging, just out of adolescence, still clumsy and tormented, but full of potential, exalted by metal music-and girls-and obsessed with their artistic project. In the marginal realm ofmetalheads, of highly distorted and screaming guitar, of rumbling bass, of tumultuous drums and roaring vocals, arises, however, a genuine chronicle tinged with camaraderie, ambition, dedication, and perseverance.
