Phoque OFF : Wrestling Night NSPW With CHOU at Centre Horizon

Thu 15 Feb 2024 • 08:00 pm Punk Rock
Le Centre Horizon - Québec 24,14$
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

The Chou adventure began in 2018, when Bruno Bouchard approached Charles Laplante with the project of repairing his defunct punk band (which he judged not to be at its full potential). What is initially an attempt to inject a dose of Hot Snakes, coupled with an unhealthy prescription for grunge, quickly goes off the rails. The experiment pulls in so many directions that the band has no choice but to deconstruct the term anarcho-punk to create the only genre that can unite all their influences: arachno-punk!

The band takes off with the arrival of the bellicose Gabrielle Oltra on drums and the thunderous Patrick “”Patch”” Chagnon on bass. The band’s first album (an eponymous collection of their pre-pandemic compositions, recorded to the rhythm of curfew and released in the midst of deconfinement) saw the light of day in May 2022. Beyond the repeated decibel onslaughts and colorful lyrics, this first draft features collaborations with Vincent Peake, Antoine Corriveau and François Gagnon from Fuck Toute.

Thanks to the humoristic-cynical character and inventive riffs of the Bouchard/Laplante duo, the cruciferous quartet attracts the attention of organizers of several festivals, including Pouzza Fest and the Taverne Tour. Several intense evenings, including concerts with Oktoplut, Cirrho and the Dales Hawerchuk, then keep this merry band busy before their biggest concert to date: opening for Mononc Serge and Anonymus at MTelus as part of the Francos de Montréal!

L’aventure Chou débute en 2018, alors que Bruno Bouchard approche Charles Laplante avec le projet de réparer sa défunte formation punk (qu’il juge ne pas être à son plein potentiel). Ce qui est initialement une tentative d’y injecter une dose de Hot Snakes, doublé d’une ordonnance malsaine de grunge, dérape rapidement. L’expérience tire dans tellement de directions que le groupe n’a pas d’autre choix que de déconstruire le terme anarcho-punk afin de créer le seul genre qui puisse réunir toutes leurs influences : l’arachno-punk!

La formation prend son envol avec l’arrivée de la belliqueuse Gabrielle Oltra à la batterie et du tonitruant Patrick “”Patch”” Chagnon à la basse. Le premier album du groupe (une collection éponyme de leurs compositions pré-pandémie, enregistré au rythme du couvre-feu et lancé en plein déconfinement) voit le jour en mai 2022. Au-delà des assauts de décibels répétés et des textes imagés, on retrouve sur ce premier jet des collaborations de Vincent Peake, Antoine Corriveau et François Gagnon de Fuck Toute.

Grâce au caractère humoristico-cynique et aux riffs inventifs du duo Bouchard/Laplante, le quatuor crucifère attire l’attention des organisateurs de plusieurs festivals, notamment du Pouzza Fest et du Taverne Tour. Plusieurs soirées intenses, dont des concerts avec Oktoplut, Cirrho et les Dales Hawerchuk, tiennent ensuite cette joyeuse bande occupée avant son plus gros concert à ce jour : la première partie de Mononc Serge et Anonymus au MTelus dans le cadre des Francos de Montréal!
