Nous étions une armée

On 26 November 2026 at Le Ferrailleur in Nantes, Nous étaient une armée made a voice heard—one that speaks, shouts and pushes—carried by searing guitars and relentless drum machines. The duo moves in chiaroscuro, between an insinuating melancholy and a sharply cutting energy, with a spoken-sung delivery that gets close to the lyrics and reconciles opposites. Their debut album, mais le ciel est sublime, released in October 2025, establishes this ground of tension and light that the band takes even further on stage.

In concert, the narrative is taut to the end, almost sacrificial: the sound hits hard without excess and the voice stays the course, direct and frontal. You find those repeated motifs, heart-clenching riffs, and drum machines that never relinquish the pulse. After two sold-out nights at Point Éphémère and La Maroquinerie, followed by opening slots for Superbus, Benjamin Biolay and Sam Sauvage, Nous étaient une armée continues on with a tighter format and an unrelenting presence. At Le Ferrailleur on 26 November 2026, the duo unfolds this chiaroscuro on stage—between cold tension and vital surges—for a set that truly lands.
