The second BB Brunes album is due to be released on November 16th. Dynamite is the first single from the album and is available to listen to free on their website in exchange for giving them your email address.

I really like this single although currently it’s not available in the British iTunes store or on Amazon.

I am currently translating this song (the result of which will be part of this post when I publish it) and something great is happening in the background. Another album new to my ears and sounding great. It’s by yet another band from Quebec called Kaïn. The album is called Les Saisons S’Tassent and you can be sure that this won’t be the last time I’ll mention them here. There are so many bands I want to introduce you to that it makes me wonder why I’m posting another BB Brunes translation.

The translation threw up some interesting verbs and unless your French is quite advanced you should pick up something new from the vocabulary I’ve highlighted.

I’ve just finished the translation and the Kaïn album is still playing – it really does sound very good indeed.

Perdus cette nuit “Lost tonight” is from the album Blonde Comme Moi released in 2007.

BB Brunes are very much part of the new French rock scene. According to Le Figaro, they are « typique d’une nouvelle génération », « leur rock candide et énervé est à la fois classique et neuf » – “typical of a new generation”, “their candid and edgy rock is both classic and modern”.
