Fake Idea consists of Julien Chalmet (vocals, guitar and keyboards), Alex Soubry (guitar and chorus), David Hazak (bass and choir) and Pierre-Erwan Grenet (drums and percussion). The quartet already has a little bottle. The band is formed in 2008, the songs are written from 2012. 166 Bpm : this is the tempo (bpm = number of Beats Per Minute) of the fastest rock track of the album, the equally good named "Do not Turn the Stereo Down". For the cute anecdote, this title also refers to the heartbeat of a child in the womb of his mother. During the time of writing, the Orléanais have all become dads. When we tell you we're not dealing with little blues.

A fearsome and creaky riff, and the battery that street: the opening of "Hoodoo Smell" which inaugurates 166 Bpm has the merit of putting everyone in agreement in less time than it takes to say . Must we admit it? We would not have spontaneously bet on good old Orleans, but on the other side of the Channel, or even across the Atlantic ... Nor on a first album. But here is a solid French formation that has digested its influences and mixes energetically along a well produced disc.
