After the release of last year's FERAROCK most played "When Will The Flies In Deauville Drop" , Le Villejuif Underground decided to do absolutely nothing for a year, and took an early retirement.

A 20-date tour of Europe was cancelled the day before! Their separation was announced on TV5 Monde and toone confused journalist from Liberation.

A few months later, a song for a world renowned fashion label wasn't completed in time for the catwalk and instead members got sloppy drunk, and fought in the streets of Paris whilst their singer was lost somewhere in the Sahara desert with passport issues.

Opportunities lost! Bridges burnt! All dreams destroyed! Many thought they would never come back, others didn't even notice, but whether you like it or not LE VILLEJUIF UNDERGROUND are back, with a 2-song single out on the only home that will have them, Born Bad Records LISTENERS: THIS IS VILLEJUIF IN SURROUND SOUND HIGH DEFINITION! "Ghost Of The Water" , is a hallucination of alcoholism, from different shaky view points and sounds like a sci-fi space/opera Lee Hazlewood western if soundtracked by a collaboration between The UV Race/The Strokes 2001: Space Odyssey "Les Huitres a Cancale", is a Kenneth Koch-like animal call to stalkers, and strangers out there on the lose in the "moi aussi" generation and rolls like an ageing Gainsbourg slow dancing on codeine, a druggy ballad for the tranquillised.

And just when you thought the world of music had ended, Le Villejuif Underground is BACK from retirement! "The more medicated, The more dedicated" - Adam Karakos
