After a trip to the USA in 1999, Jennifer Ayache went looking for musicians to make a group. She met Michel Giovannetti, a guitarist, and François Even, a bassist, who already knew each other from another group, and formed a new band. They started out as a three-piece before 2 other members joined. Those two were later replaced by Guillaume Rousé (on drums), and Patrice Focone (on guitar). Rousé quit the band in 2005 and was replaced by Greg Jacks, drummer of the band No One Is Innocent.
The band got their name from the Latin word "superbus", meaning proud, supposedly when lead singer Jennifer Ayache stumbled upon that word while browsing a Latin dictionary.
Superbus' style is reminiscent of a vast array of bands, from No Doubt to Weezer, Creedence Clearwater Revival and Sublime.
In 2002, Superbus released their debut album, "Aéromusical".
The track "Tchi-cum-bah" was the demo which caught the interest of David Salsedo, allowing Superbus to make a full album.

According to the Sikoras, Superbus are the founders of 'girl noise garage rock', a genre involving garage rock mixed with girl noise.
In 2006 the band released their third album "Wow" which reached number 6 on french album charts.
A year later Superbus released their first dvd Superbus Live A Paris which features videos from a year and a half of touring.
In 2009, Superbus released their fourth album "Lova Lova". The reissue of the album included a cover of Blondie's "Heart of Glass", which was originally a bonus track for the 2006 album "Wow".

In 2016, Superbus recorded their sixth album "Sixtape". The album's name is a reference to the album's number.

Superbus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Je vois les étoiles
C'est un engin très spécial
Il est Aéromusical
Il fait pala palala palala palala
A bord de mon super bocal
J'ai le son méga digital
Je deviens Aéromusical
Je fais pala palala palala palala
The lyrics to the song Aéromusical by Superbus takes the listener on a journey through space, describing what the main character sees and experiences. The first verse sets the scene by saying that the singer is on board a spaceship and can see the stars. The second verse refers to the spaceship as an "engin très spécial" or a very special engine, and introduces the concept of it being Aéromusical. This suggests that the spaceship is not only a means of transportation, but also a source of musical inspiration.
The chorus is mainly repetitive sounds and emphasizes the theme of the song - that the singer is becoming Aéromusical. The lyrics suggest that the spaceship is not only a means of transport, but also a form of musical expression. It's almost as though the spaceship and the music are interconnected - the spaceship inspires the music and the music inspires the spaceship.
In conclusion, Aéromusical by Superbus is an imaginative and entertaining song with an exciting theme of space travel and music. The lyrics paint a picture of a fun and adventurous ride through the galaxy where sounds and sights come together to create an experience that is otherworldly.

@LycaonOmega on est en 2020, les temps changent. Quand c'est sortit c'était raccord avec ses inspirations (à savoir blink-182, sum 41...) et le punk à roulettes marchait très bien. Je comprend que ça puisse être démodé à l'heure actuelle cependant on ne peut nier son franc succès à l'époque

Une chanson relativement médiocre d'un groupe véritablement sans intérêt
