But who are “Les Sales Cons “ (The AssHoles) ? You? Us? Them?
“We rap out loud what nobody is thinking” this is de motto of this Hip hop band from Strasbourg (France) called LES SALES CONS.
Formed around the two Mcs and Beat makers Mac Traître and La Note, they find their current group in 2008 with Dj Giobbe on turntables.
By cultivating a pronounced disgust towards the rest of the world, Les Sales Cons evoke throughout about fifteen titles, the manners of young human beings, like sex, hypocrisy, stupidity, frustration and disasters, on a cynical, impertinent and sarcastic tone, but always with a critical content.
Musically, is a patchwork of many influences like the rap, the rock’n’roll and the electro music from every angle.
To sound more rock on stage, they integrate in a few songs, a distortion guitar, a funky bass guitar and an implacable djembe played by Mcs themselves, all this of course articulated around the relentless scratches of the Dj.
Their first album « Mettez-vous des claques ! » (Smack yourselves!), with 14 crazy songs, will be followed by a tour to propagate their stupidity and their irony in a festive and decadent atmosphere.
Then…if you like Hip hop Smile’n’Punk, if the motto “WE RAP OUT LOUD WHAT NOBODODY IS THINKING” speaks to you and if you like what they do, don’t hesitate to book them, to distribute them, to offer Rolex to them, to buy their album for going crazy, drunk and naked with them on stage.
Les Sales Cons appreciate and don’t forget that “the stupidity is the relaxation of the mind” (Serge Gainsbourg).
