thank you God, the crisis has not had the skin of the Route du Rock. Two years ago, the future of Breton festival was more uncertain. Today, bankers are still dancing the dance hammer on their desktop, but the appointment still celebrates its twentieth edition.
If you plan to go to Saint Malo this weekend (and you would be quite right), prepare yourself physically, because the Route du Rock, it's three days of music certainly, but also and especially three days to recover. You have been warned.

Dum Dum Girls is a little summary of all good girl groups, halfway between the Ronettes and the Shangri-Las, and a sprinkling of pop punk of the Vivian Girls. Not to mention they are pretty bonasses, and more.
The blackness of the Velvet Underground, the Doors' psychedelia, this is how one could summarize the music of the Black Angels , but it is so flattering, the comparison would still be too vulgar. La Route du Rock marks the second concert of Texas Breton, after lighting the TransMusicales in 2008. It was, and was more than eager to do it again.
When you do not know Caribou, one might say: "Frankly, just because this guy was quite crossed to choose the stage name Caribou, I'll go see what it looks like" . And then when we know the music from Caribou, we know very well that whatever happens to take place 2:50 to see him live.
The five boys from Oxford are they still really make? No. So we'll just say that after having released one of the great records of 2010, Foals may well provide one of the great concerts of the Route du Rock, at the same time. Avoid the front row if you're not the adventurous type, because it will shake.
Sad songs for dirty lovers is not only the name of one of the albums The National , but also a way that is very poetic and quite appropriate describe the music of America.
If they have not been very productive since their last album in 2006, the Rapture nevertheless have forgotten how to make us dance. Whoo! Alright-Yeah ... Uh Huh , First Gear and Get Myself Into It in particular have been and remain incomparable recipes for wiggle frantically. Their dance punk to new wave accents sometimes, sometimes electro, looks just perfect to end this twentieth edition of the festival Saint-Malo.
