Influenced by french punk bands like Zabriskie Point, les PKRK as well as american bands like NoFx, Antiflag or Rancid... they sound definitely punk-rock (or "relativement punk-rock" as they like to claim). They joined guerilla-asso, independant french label founded by Guerilla Poubelle and have released one album so far, "Du pareil au Même".

Dans l'indifférence et la joie
Justin(e) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Il y a de mauvaise paix
L'homme ET l'animal
Allez
Je suis le nord et le sud, à la fois jouissance et entrave, Dark vador dans la Schtroumphette, le caviar et la rillette. Un vœux de silence bruyant à la recherche du chômage, sans préférence, je suis, dans l'indifférencié, je suis...
A la fois maître et esclave, au fond dans la forme je suis un anus artificiel qui s'envole à tir d'aile. Nana nananana na A a aa aaaaa
Je suis le noir et le blanc, l'homme et la femme évidemment, Louise Michel dans Mussolini, l'agressivité du feng-schui. Un nazi hyper sympa, un gros connard de communiste. Sans préférence je suis, dans l'indifférencié je suis...
A la fois maître et esclave, au fond dans la forme je suis une crise providentielle qui s'envole à tir d'aile. Nana nananana na A a aa aaaa
The lyrics to Justin(e)'s song "Dans l'indifférence et la joie" are a commentary on the complexities of identity and the human condition. The opening lines suggest that there are both just and unjust wars and peace, and that both humans and animals are involved in these conflicts. This sets the stage for the rest of the song, which explores the multiple, contradictory aspects of the self.
The singer claims to be both north and south, enjoyment and hindrance, and Dark Vader in the Smurfs. These seemingly opposing identities are synthesized in the line "je suis, dans l'indifférencié, je suis..." which can be roughly translated as "I am, in the indifferent, I am...". This suggests that the self is not easily categorized or defined, and that there is a certain indeterminacy at the core of human identity.
The second verse continues this exploration of identity, claiming to be both master and slave, and an artificial anus that flies away. This surreal imagery underscores the idea that the self is not a stable or static construct, but rather a flux of contradictory impulses and desires. The final lines of the song reinforce this idea, as the singer claims to be both black and white, female and male, and a "hyper-nice" Nazi and a "big asshole" Communist. The song seems to suggest that these identities are not mutually exclusive, and that the self is a constantly shifting, multi-dimensional entity that defies easy categorization.

I am both black and white, and both a man and a woman. I am like Louise Michel in Mussolini, with the aggressiveness of feng shui. I can be a friendly Nazi or a jerk communist. I am without preference and exist within indifference.
