New album 𝐔𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐃 out now: http://tristessecontemporaine.lnk.to/UNITED

TRISTESSE CONTEMPORAINE : Leo, Narumi and Mike.

IT'S ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT THE BASS.

We will always have that fantastic feeling inside us of hearing that bass getting louder and louder as we are carried closer and closer to the heart of our favourite dance floor.
We will always have in our minds that bass line of that rock song that will stay with us for all our lives, Peter Hook, Simon Gallup, Mani...You name it.
Tristesse Contemporaine is glued together by three adopted Parisians, a Japanese girl and two guys, one British, one Swedish.
Raw, desperate and hypnotic energy engulfed by memories of Shoegazer and Krautrock.
The trio flirt in the shadows of Suicide with catchy melodies and synth-pop, held together by that androgynous voice, suspended on the razor's edge of that beautiful vintage bass.

Romantic and flamboyant, arrogant and haunting, their first album imagines a world in chiaroscuro, where the electrical illuminations of shoegazing merge with electronic beats, with a heightened new wave sensitivity.
Climb to the dark side of modern pop as you enter the fractured, hypnotic, dance of Tristesse Contemporaine.

Agent Side Grinder is an electronic band from Stockholm, formed in 2005.

Their first two albums, "Agent Side Grinder" (2008) and "Irish Recording Tape" (2009) were rooted in post-punk, industrial and dark electro. The band quickly gained an underground following throughout Europe.

Their third album "Hardware" (2012) showed a bigger and more textured sound and was met with universal acclaim. It was named "album of the month" in Vice Magazine, topped several annual "best of-lists" including Dagens Nyheter, Metro and Time Out Paris and won the Manifest-award (Swedish indie-grammy) for best synth album in 2013.

In 2015 they released their magnum opus “Alkimia”, a dramatic and melodic album that exceeded the success of “Hardware” (another Manifest win) and cemented ASG’s position as one of Europe’s leading synth-wave bands.

ASG has a reputation of being a powerful and mighty live band. They have done seven European tours and played festivals such as Wave-Gotik Treffen, M'era Luna, The Great Escape, Eurosonic, Les Transmusicales de Rennes, NCN Festival, Terminus, Entremurahlas, Bimfest, Drop Dead Festival and Arvikafestivalen. They have opened for bands such as Suicide and Laibach and collaborated with artists like Dirk Ivens, Kite and Henric de la Cour.
