(13 novembre 2005) We all drink blood for a living Inside your shirt it was out of control Clean room ten, clean room ten, clean Black strap on your crimson baby back It’s in your blood for a lifetime Inside your chest it was out of control Clean room ten, clean room ten, clean You’ve been in bed for years now We all share blood with each other Inside your heart it was out of control Clean room ten, clean room ten, clean This is your moment to shine

Greek Woman 02:46
(4 janvier 2008) Green woman Don’t you want me to be your man? It’s all golden inside Greek Woman We will be the first to fight It’s all golden inside Greek woman Why don’t you kill the answer phone? It’s all golden inside

M M 02:58
(27 février 2006) Girls going to their tryst Just another side effect Cold dark 1962 Train fight for me and you From the mouth of Marilyn Monroe Naked with dancing luck The five of us are dying In a summer parade Another drunken ship in the night JFK's list of top ten You better read it right Post world war entertainer Matt Monroe you’re the one

Silent 04:09
(17 août 2002) Naked on your bed late on Sunday morning You were like a starfish for the painter Details and shapes of a fist fight Silent and spying on the world You’re all red now You must have got it from a kid Didn’t you know that Ben was an only son? Listen to me, you only live twice There’s nothing else you could have done She fell in love, in love with the blacksmith But that was years and years ago Now she’s gone and she’s sleeping around Sweaty, fancy, one bed, one city New Zealand is not a country It’s an island inside my heart I’ll paint your constellation scars It taste like salt when you leave Burn all my books, get on a train Fight for you evil painted city
6.
The Arcade 02:28
(14 août 1995) The arcade is sinking fast This ship was never meant to last for me and you Do do do do do do, do it Just for the sake of it babe Kick, punch, block You will never, do what’s right You will never Cause the Panzer’s been waiting, for 10 long years Your fingers will not remember, the touch, the edge and azel The sword was just an excuse away The arcade is sinking fast, this ship was never You will never, do what’s right You will never do it
7.
Queen 03:15
(4 mai 1982) I know That you are Good for MM I swear That you are A queen For me We are waiting Let’s make out and dance dance We are waiting Let’s make out and dance dead I know That I swear That you are A queen
8.
Flag 03:33
(7 mars 2006) Flag for a dress That’s what you get For messing with us Messing with us Bluebell is born To the sound Of broken machines Broken machines Cold blooded Hot gossip Bag it up Lift me up He wants it She's got it Superficial expectation Little white lies Tell a story I see it all Has no glory What you see Ain't what you are getting Sugar sweet Look at me
9.
Books 02:08
(23 Juin 1959) For the sake of books letters and words Collecting faces, braces and beds Take notes, takes notes, take notes, for me Books are burning on your lips tonight For the sake of faces, braces and beds Collecting secrets, letters and words Take notes, takes notes, take notes, for me The kids you’re making are not totally born right For the sake of books, letters and words Collecting faces, braces and beds
10.
Ship 04:32
(11 mars 1978) You’re so low must be a curse, I know What you need I’ve seen it in books as a kid, she said You’re a witch and there’s no cure for what you are You will be burning along with the captain tonight You’re a ghost to me now You took a ship all the way back to Sydney
11.
The Chase 01:54
(18 février 2008) The DJ said it’s alright You can dance just about every night Every single boy is waiting in line at the office for you The DJ said it’s alright You can dance just about every night I like to think of you at the office alone
12.
Secret 03:34
(4 août 2006) What we do is secret and that’s alright

En attendant le prochain disque de Lesbo Vrouven, on fête les 10 ans de Encore la mort. L'album post-punk semi-concept a été remasterisé et sort en vinyle jaune, individuellement numéroté à la main et accompagné de surprises. Sam Murdock, Hugo Lebel et Tony, le nouveau drummeur de l'époque, se souviennent d'une période importante, intense et créative. Enregistré et mixé dans un marathon chaotique de trois jours au printemps 2008, les 12 chansons dansantes sur la mort s'écoutent encore mieux sur une table tournante et la pochette de l'Américaine Betsy Walton est toujours aussi magnifique. L'album risque d'être joué en entier lors des quelques concerts lancement de l'automne. P572 s'occupe de la distribution au Canada et Catulle & Ramón en Europe. Bli Bli Bli.

À l'époque des critiques avaient dit ceci “ […] une synergie punk-new wave délirante.” (Antoine Léveillée, Voir), “ […] impossible pour l’auditeur enivré de retirer le disque du lecteur.” (Michel Cécyre, Bande à Part), “ […] douze pièces aussi nerveuses que chaotiques, bien foutues et surtout, bien efficaces” (André Péloquin, Ici), “ Une agressivité digne des plus fougueux groupes punk, des lignes de basse corrosives jumelées à des guitares crasseuses ainsi que des rythmiques vives et incessantes font d’Encore la mort un album duquel se dégage une virulente énergie sauvage.” (Philippe Renault, Le Journal de Montréal)

ENGLISH :
While we wait for the new Lesbo Vrouven album, we celebrate the 10th year of their second disc, Encore la mort. The post-punk semi-concept album released in 2008 has been remastered into a yellow vinyl and it comes with souvenirs and bonuses. Sam Murdock and Hugo Lebel along with Tony, the then new drummer, recorded and mixed Encore la mort in three days, after rehearsing the complex compositions in concerts for months. The 12 dunk-pance songs about death to dance to were a creative turning point for the band. Gloomy, but fun, like the artwork by extraordinary American artist Betsy Walton. In tandem with the release of this vinyl reissue, Lesbo Vrouven will play shows and maybe sing the whole album. P572 and Catulle & Ramón are together again for distribution in Canada and Europe.

This was said about the record then: “Projecting their manic energy full force into Encore La Mort, Quebec City’s Lesbo Vrouven continue to be a force to be reckoned with. Their in-your-face live antics have made them a memorable attraction away from home and that exuberant attitude comes across clearly on these punk-infused rock songs. Vocalist/guitarist Sam Murdock barks out lyrics insistently on faux come-ons like "Greek Woman” and harsh examinations of relationship dynamics on "Silent.” "M M” is dripping with spirit, with the band careening around the pop culture-aping song as Murdock pushes them harder. Even more inventive, "Queen” and "Flag” take the band out of their comfort zone, edging thoughtfully into darker arrangements. Traces of No Means No and Shellac colour Lesbo Vrouven’s power trio formation, though they adhere to a four-on-the-floor dance beat in a few too many songs, which actually proves to be a distraction from some really, really strong parts.” (Vish Khanna, Exclaim!)

''Lesbo Vrouven came to Phog once. I had heard an EP of theirs and thought, “Yep, this is damn good.” What happened when they showed to play? They were flawless. The up-tempo, dirty-bass sound was exactly what the recording advertised. I have been waiting for them to leave Quebec again since then. Speaking of “since then”, they have played with Beirut, Tokyo Police Club, Pride Tiger, Les Georges Leningrad, and more. Very impressive. Can’t wait to hear what they’ve cooked up in over two years.'' Tom Lucier, Phog Lounge
