Louis Lingg and the Bombs is an exciting Parisian punk rock band formed in the summer of 2006.

The line up:
Josh (ex-Tchiki Boum, Dummycrusher, Producer of Underground Railroad, Foxglove, First Part and NMA ) on Vocals and Guitar.
Jerome (from Flashing on Bright and Jan Bat) on Drums and Vocals.
Laurent (from Udigrudi) on Bass and Vocals.
Ben (singer songwriter and visual artist) on Guitar and Vocals.
All the members are in their twenties.

Their influences:
Punk bands like The Epoxies, Antiflag, Rancid, NOFX and Greenday.
They have a strong love of ’78 style punk like The Buzzcocks, The Clash and The Undertones.
Never forgetting that they are children of the 90s having grown up with bands such as Nirvana, Bikini Kill, Sleater Kinney and The Butthole Surfers.
In their song-writing however, their admiration of classic children’s songs is clearly visible, as is their 60s influences; Shirley Ellis, Aretha Franklin and Nancy Sinatra.

“They play a danceable garage punk sound with a new wave pop edge.
They play exciting, fun concerts. Listening to super-fast pop songs full of catchy hooks, it’s difficult not to dance around the room with a smile on you face”

The group is named after Louis Lingg, the famous Chicago anarchist who committed suicide on death row in 1887. Some of their songs are ultra-political anarchist punk rock and some of their songs are like children’s nursery rhymes. ALL of their song’s are full of pop hooks and melodies and they are sung with energy and commitment.

After a series of demos, they finished their first 7 track CD EP in September 2006.

Conspiracy A song about how the Neo cons knocked the two towers down. Believe it.
