2007 | 72 | Mardi Gras of the Sisypha
‘We spread communism by the gallon of gasoline.’ It could be a quote from the German militant group RAF but it is the first line of Vanguard, the second album of experimental rock band The Sedan Vault. This new record shows a developed group that goes beyond the usual punk and rock influences. Vanguard has got groove, harmony, songs and punch line lyrics. The Sedan Vault hail from the city of Sterrebeek in Belgium. In official terms the band is labelled as ‘innovating indierock / postcore / progrock’. Their debut album 'Mardi Gras of the Sisypha' was released in 2006 on the independent label Funtime Records. The Sedan Vault are certainly not new to the Belgian rockscene: since the release of the debut album Mardi Gras, the band has had more than their share of airplay, reviews and interviews in both papers and crucial internet-magazines. All this resulted in a nomination for a Zamu-award (best song 2006), four weeks in the Arriba!-list, and a number 1 in the Puur Belgisch-charts (Jim Tv) for three weeks. Most of all, The Sedan Vault is known for their wild, energetic live shows. And that pays off. The past few years they played Pukkelpop, Dour and almost every Belgian club such as Ancienne Belgique, Vooruit, Hof Ter Lo, Soundstation, STUK and Muziekodroom. Besides club shows with bands as Death Cab For Cutie, The Mars Volta, Minus The Bear, Nada Surf, Hermano and Coheed and Cambria. Next to shows in France, Switzerland and Luxembourg, they were invited to the Netherlands to play the renowned clubs and underground festivals State-X/New Forms and ZXZW. Abroad they shared stages with Sonic Youth, Mono, The Datsuns and Face Tomorrow. Read more on Last.fm.
