The Battle of Faded-Kao

the battle of Faded-Kao is an album of Bérurier Noir compiling a score of songs recorded at the time of the first concerts which the group gave (between 1983 and 1984). This live compilation of pieces east left in 1998 on the label Last Call .

The goal of this disc is to recreate “the environment of the squats” in which the group made its débuts.

By its title the album refers to the factory of Faded-Kao , a factory squattée in the 20 {{E}} district where many alternative groups of the time occurred. It is in this squat that Bérurier Noir carried out its first concert. Thirteen titles of the album are extracted besides from concerts which proceeded in this factory désaffectée.

The first eight titles were collected at the time of the very first concert of the group, on February 19th, 1983 with the factory of Faded-Kao. These songs all are resulting from the cassette Meilleurs extracted the two concerts in Paris left in 1983. The songs occupying tracks 9 to 12 are they also originating in this cassette. They were recorded the June 1st, 1983 with the Salle of the Rocket (in Paris) at the time of the festival Art Béton.

Tracks 13 to 17 come they from a concert recorded on October 8th, 1983 with the factory Faded-Kao at the time of the festival Rising Free . They result from a cassette published by V.I.S.A. entitled Rising Free and which gathered in addition to these titles of Bérurier Noir of the pieces of Subhumans recorded during this festival.

Finally the last 3 pieces of the album ( " Béruriers are the rois" , " Bûcherons" and " Hopital" lobotomy; ) goes back to April 1984 and has the characteristic to be played with a battery. Indeed right before the concert the group had been done stolen its box at rate/rhythm and had called upon Gaboni, beater of Lucrate Milk, to replace the box at rate/rhythm the time in a concert. These pieces were in the beginning present on the 45 lathes Nada 84 .
