About Me

a film/un clip using images captured 270507 by our mysterious friend Lazloubraz:
au sujet de mueros
Qualifié de post-rock, noisy ou expérimental, Mueros joue intuitivement avec les sons et livre une musique empreinte d’émotions. Nourris d’influences aussi variées que nombreuses, allant de leonard cohen à sonic youth, ses membres sont élevés dans l’héritage des cultures alternatives et underground.
Le groupe déploie derrière ses chansons un univers singulier, explorant des textures sonores complexes et déroutantes. Les textes, en français et en anglais, s’immiscent dans la musique en apportant une touche intimiste et introspective.
Les compositions de Mueros oscillent entre des titres généreux, faussement calmes, tendus, et des morceaux plus apaisés. On se laissera emporter dans leur album « zero » par cette musique personnelle et teintée de contrastes.
Le groupe expérimente. Sur scène, il mêle habilement à ses compositions des improvisations qui n’ont de cesse d’étoffer et réinventer leur univers sonore. Les guitares, aux sons samplés, distordus, discourent audacieusement avec une basse et batterie toutes en nuances, ruptures ou ponctuations. Mueros fabrique à sa manière une musique qui trouble et ne laisse pas indifférent.
Cela donne un groupe inclassable et surprenant, qui impose son genre d’une essence singulière. A découvrir en concert, et avec « zéro » le premier album de Mueros.
Mueros s’est vu confier la création musicale de « Norway. Today », pièce jouée au Théâtre National de Nice en octobre 2006, mise en scène par Frédéric de Goldfiem.

as reviewed by Ant of Norman Records:
"I got slightly confused yesterday whilst listening to French band MUEROS' 'Zero' CD. Although I am easy to confuse half way into the album I was convinced I was listening to something by a completely different artist. From the indie pop despair of opening track 'Arsenic' to title track 'Zero' which wonders into dark drone realms with haunting female gothic vocals this truly is a mixed bag. Features some pieces which were the soundtrack to the theatre play 'Norway-Today'. This one straddles the experimental, improv, electronic and indie genres utilizing an extensive range of tools from xylophone, metallic strip, voices, screwdriver, ebow, inrfa bass, water bottles, loops percussion etc. Phew... Everything but the kitchen sink on this self released Ltd edition."
