Lézard

Lézard, a Belgian quintet with the air of a disco-vogue-punk creature, turns the anxiety of a world in free fall into a rhythmic, jubilant outlet. Their music, fed by the irreverence of Devo, the nervous edge of The Contortions, the dance-punk drive of LCD Soundsystem and the electronic legacy of Telex, unfolds a sharp groove that liberates as much as it shakes. Beneath a geometric, seemingly controlled façade, the band erupts into a baroque, inclusive frenzy — a Boogie Wonderland for eccentrics and restless minds. Carried by tracks like "Nothing At All" and "Coltrane & XTC", Lézard charges ahead at full speed, honing a hybrid language where art-punk rubs up against a deviant, euphoric disco. A lineup in full metamorphosis, fully embracing its pop panache, taste for the bizarre and its vital need to make the end of the world dance.
