About this user
By the end of 2004, the Delecroix brothers had already performed together in several groups yet had not fulfilled their musical ambitions. Sean had been playing drums for several years and Manf the guitar. And so they decided to create a band, whishing to share their music rooted in a wide spectrum of influences.
Meanwhile, Yo, just arrived in Toulouse, was looking for a band to join as a performer and song writer. With nothing but his voice and his pen, he found in writing the best way to express the soft optimism of an otherwise rebel heart. With Slaene, he will bring his lyrics to life with all of his energy and explosive singing.
At the same time, JC, a self taught bass player, was looking to explore new musical horizons by performing with musicians inspired by different styles than his.
It was on the web that the four Slaene members came to meet. Rapidly, their urge to learn from each other's differences and create an original style led to a strong musical partnership. Inspired by groups such as Rage Against the Machine, Incubus, Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Tool, Foo Fighters, Deftones, as well as the mythic Jimmy Hendrix or Led Zeppelin, Slaene was naturally oriented towards rock fusion in which can come together metal rhythms and funk sounds, or vice versa.
In January 2008 came out Slaene's first album: "Vices Versatiles," in which the common thread is the meeting of opposites. The spirit of the music blended with the flourish of the lyrics brings out Slaene's unique mix of gentle and explosive styles.
To share this album with audiences, the group returns on stage, offering concerts loaded with energy.
In 2010, after two years of concerts, the group goes back to the studio with a couple new songs up the sleeve. From the first, "My Goals", will emerge SLaeNE's very first video clip, a mixture of rock, buoyancy and comedy. The second song, "Betrayed", reveals a turning point in SLaeNE's music. In this title, the group explores pop sound and melodies and enhances them with strings.
SLaeNE celebrates the Day of Music by uploading digital versions of "Betrayed" and "My Goals" on June 21st 2010
