Is Paris Burning?,
By andy7 (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anarchy in Paris (Audio CD)
This is one of the best compilations ever. Metal Urbain are a terrific merge of Suicide and the best 70s/80s punk rock with Gallic gibberish lyrics...love the dirty guitar sounds and the 2001 space odyssey synthesizer while Clode Panik screams "Lady Coca Cola" at you...best tracks: Sweet Marilyn, Atlantis, Pop Poubelle, Hysterie Connective, Colt 45, Numero Zero...if you like good punk rock this will drive you nuts!

Classic Punk Unearthed,
By directions "neuralbuddhist" (Space Time Foam) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Anarchy in Paris (Audio CD)
This reissue was worth it and I've heard that Metal Urbain even influenced Big Black. However, except for the use of synths, I would put them closer to classic punk than the wide variety of sonic experiments that encompass post punk. The synths are played as direct punk instruments not as soundscapes for morbid, meandering lyrics. A manic, wired, Francophile version of the Sex Pistols with the synths for a change of pace. Not exactly Suicide as the songs are quite similar in length and tone but then again this was the early days of punk. However, as classic punk goes, this is up there with the best of them. Now if only I could understand the lyrics.
