VOÏVOD ACOUSTIQUE?

Denis "Piggy" D'Amour n'avait jamais possédé de guitare acoustique avant l'été 2005. Mais, quand il a réalisé qu'il ne survivrait pas à son cancer du colon, il a demandé à ce qu'on lui en apporte une, et de son lit d'hôpital, il a enregistré les interludes acoustiques immortalisés sur Katorz, l'avant-dernier album de Voïvod. L'histoire de la guitare acoustique, c'est un Jason Newsted (bassiste) très enthousiaste qui l'a racontée aux journalistes venus entendre les 10 nouvelles chansons de Voïvod, qui sont également le testament musical d'un guitariste légendaire. Le batteur Michel Langevin se réjouit aussi d'avoir su transposer sur disque la volonté et l'originalité musicale de son ami Piggy. Sa joie est cependant teintée d'amertume puisque la parution de Katorz se déroule sans son ami de longue date. C'est aussi le début de la fin pour le groupe, qui ne compte pas le remplacer. "Comment le pourrait-on? " dit-il. En effet. Katorz, un album à la fois aventureux, accrocheur et extrêmement efficace sur le plan de la réalisation, sera disponible en juin sur The End Records. Notez que Voïvod garde encore quelques compositions en banque et prévoit lancer un ultime album en 2007. (Christine Fortier)

It's basically about Piggy never owning an acoustic guitar until towards the end, when he recorded some stuff with it "on his hospital bed" (another article had said that it was at his girlfriend's place) and some of these recordings will be used as interludes between the songs on Katorz.

haha...good answer!

C'mon dOOds, we do this every time..."translation please". I rather enjoy reading through, I know I never have the translation at all, but I also know at some point some cool French Canadian will translate it for us English Only, or whatever other languages are spoken by vvfans...etc. etc. etc.
Plus it can be a bit entertaining to plug that stuff into those free translation sites.

BTW, Christine Fortier is very cool. They once asked the Voir writers what were their favorite summer songs.

She answered: Corporal Jigsore Quandry by Carcass and Run To The Hills by Maiden, saying that the Maiden track made her want to run in a field of daisies.

Denis "Piggy" D’Amour had never had acoustic guitar before the summer 2005. But, when he realized that he would not survive his cancer of the colonist, he asked to bring one to him, and from his hospital bed, he recorded the acoustic interludes immortalized on Katorz, the last but one album from Voïvod. The history of the acoustic guitar, it is Jason Newsted (bass player) very enthusiastic which told it with the journalists come to hear the 10 new songs of Voïvod, which are also the musical will of a legendary guitarist. The drummer Michel Langevin is also delighted to have known to transpose on disc the will and the musical originality from his friend Piggy. His joy is however tinted of bitterness since the publication of Katorz proceeds without his friend of long date. It is also the beginning of the end for the group, which does not hope to replace him. "How could we?" he says. Indeed. Katorz, an album at the same time adventurous, hooker and extremely effective in the field of the realization, will be available in June on The End Records. Note that Voïvod still keeps some compositions in bank and envisages throw an ultimate album in 2007. (Christine Fortier)

Not quite as snappy an album review as we've come to expect from, say, Skulhed.
