From heavy metal to grindcore, from Mötorhead to Slipknot, from depressing American suburbs to Japanese anime, this album deciphers twenty styles of extreme music, their characteristics, philosophies and histories. Combining the desire to play faster and louder with the need to express discontent or revolt, metal has been furiously making its way into the ears of a passionate public for over fifty years.

Otis Redding, la soul dans la peau
Singer Otis Redding made soul history in just seven years. An icon of black American music, he topped the charts with songs such as I’ve Been Loving You Too Long, These Arms of Mine and Try a Little Tenderness. Although he went broke at the height of his fame, his posthumous songs, such as (Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay, made him a household name. Covered by artists the world over, his music remains timeless… Immortal.

Le retour de Lagaffe
Gaston is one of the most sympathetic characters in all of Franco-Belgian comics. Born 66 years ago under the pencil of André Franquin, Gaston starts out as a lazy anti-hero, but soon develops into a character of boundless imagination and energy (as long as he doesn’t have to work). The series features a delightful cast of characters: Moizelle Jeanne, Gaston’s love interest (who doesn’t pick up on any of the signals she sends); M. De Mesmaecker, the irascible businessman who can never sign contracts; Prunelle, Gaston’s stressed-out boss and favorite victim of his inventions, and so on. “Gaston” is without doubt the funniest series in the history of Franco-Belgian comics, with expressive, ultra-dynamic graphics.
In order to respect Franquin’s spirit and work as closely as possible, Delaf has carried out an extremely meticulous analysis. The result is incredible and magnificent!
