LITIGE - Casual Tonight



  LITIGE are a punk 4 piece from Lyon featuring a line up of Louise (vocals), Morgan (guitar), Camille (drums) and Tifène (bass). They announced themselves in 2015 with a very promising demo and proved they were no flash in the pan with the Fuite En Avant ep. Now they return with an impressive new album titled En Eaux Troubles (In Troubled Waters). It mixes grit and melody to produce something a little bit special. Lead single Regardez Moi (a balanced critique of the selfie generation) promised much and happily the album doesn't disappoint. Other songs deal with macho moshers, fashion punks, global destruction, toxic relationships and friendship...

    The vinyl version of the album is available to pre order from Destructure Records   http://www.destructure.org/store/litige-en-eaux-troubles-lp and it's name your price here :   https://litigelyon.bandcamp.com/album/en-eaux-troubles

  This track is about dressing normally and being happy to be oneself in a field full of strutting peacocks. It's called Casual Tonight...

Je me sens trop ridicule de...
Je me sens trop ridicule de...

Si j’avais osé, je serais venue en pyjama
Mais je me suis juste pointée avec mon jean normal

Pourquoi tu m’as pas dit que tout le monde serait looké
Au milieu du cuir on dirait que je sors du lycée

So casual tonight / So casual tonight

Il faudrait que je fasse quoi, que je crée un personnage
C’est déjà assez dur de comprendre ce qui se passe
Alors si il faut en plus, bosser son image
En tout cas ce qui est sûr, c’est que ce soir on était casual

So casual tonight / So casual tonight

On portait pas assez de noir pour qu’on puisse nous voir...
