My Brains Are Circumcised

The Era of The Richest Poors

Once a locally famous Brussels-based quintet that then became a legend over the years, The Negro Conspiracy «rocks the dog's bollocks», as the Director of London-based Buttercuts Records said after seeing their show. 
The adventure only lasted three and a half years... but boy what amazing years those were! 
The Negro Conspiracy was founded by drummer Raphaël Starkier, bassist Gilles Gutmann and singer Stéphane Van Tricht on the ashes of their band Unusual, with the addition of guitarist/bassist Nordine Mr Leather Belgium, who left soon afterwards due to other commitments. They were then joined by guitarist and friend Gilles Duchesne on lead guitar. Last but not least, Sébastien Decupère was hired on rhythm guitar. 
Line-up issues now firmly solved, they started writing and rehearsing in 2004 in order to hit the road as soon as possible. 
Opportunity knocked in early 2006 when producer/music business guru Ken Giles (Sisters of Mercy / Drawmer / Soundfield) booked them for a recording session at Radar Studios in England. This resulted in their 1st EP «Black'n'roll» with Richard Lacy (Eden’s Bridge) and Richard Kimmings on engineering and post-production duties. 
Already a stalwart of the Brussels live rock scene (DNA, Magasin 4 etc), The Negro Conspiracy released their EP with a massive gig at Recycl’Art, as headliners for the Pop Zero party, adding new material and starring London-based rapper Cultcam on keyboards and vocals. The concert was recorded live by their long time engineer Matthias Witdskiöld (Mottow Soundz) and John Van Steenlandt. 
Some time later, bass-player Gilles sadly had to quit the band and was replaced by Fabian Van Eycken (Coubiac) but after only a few gigs, the band felt it was time to move on and they split in the summer of 2007. 
The Negro Conspiracy draws its energy and influences from hardcore and rock’n’roll on the one hand and Afro-American music (blues, funk, soul and hip-hop) on the other. Their style is a very energetic, loud and rhythmical one they called Black’n’roll. All of their material is original. 
… rumours have been heard about a possible reunion... watch this space!
