BIOGRAPHY:
The Indochine group was born with the beginning from the year
1981 from the meeting from Nicola Sirkis and Domenica Nicolas
quickly joined by Dimitri Bodianski. After some concerts the
group signs an engagement with a house of discs and leaves first
individual which enables them to be pointed out and to find
new engagements to grind their compositions.
Into the beginning
of year 82, Stephan, the twin brother of Nicola, integrates
the group which leaves, little of time after, its first album:
"the adventurer". It is a genuine paperboard and Indochine
is greeted by a unanimous criticism. The second album ("the
Yellow peril", 1983) then the following ("3",
1985) meet same success, in particular thanks to titles like
"Miss Paramount", "Canary Bay", or "3
Nights Per Week". The group leaves in interminable rounds
before making a short station-wagon. In 1987 the group takes
with against foot the critic and the public while leaving an
album resolutely more rock'n'roll and darker "7 000 Dances".
If the album carries out sales more than honourable (400 000
specimens) the first dissensions are made feel and in 1989 Dimitri
Bodianski leaves the group. It does not matter, Indochine continuous
to exist and leaves "the Kiss" in 1990. The press
does not support the album and the passion of the public disappears,
the sales fall. The things worsen with the album according to
"One Day In Our Life" which is boycotted by the media.
The continuation is a long crossing of the desert intersected
by meetings in concerts with a public remained faithful. In
1995 Domenica Nicolas leaves the group and in February 1999
in full recording of the album "Dancetaria" Stephan
dies of striking down hepatitis. Nicola however decides to continue
the adventure Indochine and in 2002 finally resurrection with
the exit of "Paradize arrives". The title "I
Asked for A the Moon" is an immense success and the detractors
of the group who qualified it formerly the old-fashioned ones
are well obliged to re-examine their judgement: Indochine is
a great French group. At the end of 2005, Indochine leaves its
tenth album studio "Alice And June" and is on the
point of taking again the road for a new round marathon which
will have as a point of organ a concert event on June 6, 2006
(6.6.6 for the symbolic system) in an exceptional and unusual
place.
