This is with a heavy heart that we announce tha our bassist Jean-Claude is leaving the band.
This is his choice for his own reasons, we’re in good term with him and we cheerfully thank him for his hard work with us, for these 25 concerts at our side.
We’ve done great things together during these 4 years.
Good luck to you and for your future projects, you’ll always be part of the Lyncelia family.
For the moment, we continue as a 2 pieces-band and to focus on the writing of the new and 6th album.
Our Live album “LIVE – BESIDE VENUS” is available on Digital on our BANDCAMP Page.

Tracklist:
As a tradition for all people, it’s my turn to let you know about my top 10 albums on this last decade. It includes the albums I most listened to during these years in chronological order.
1 – Zola Jesus “Stridulum II” (2010)
Her second album. Very personal and new from me at this time, I was completely seduced by her voice and her electronic music. The first song is a cult one fro me.
2 – Dead Can Dance “Anastasis” (2012)
Their great return with an awesome album. All is perfect on this one, great arrangements, great hypnotic songs. And the tour following this new album was a blast for me. I rarely heard a so powerful and clear live sound. Perfect!
3 – Christina Aguilera “Lotus” (2012)
Everybody knows that i’m a huge Christina Aguilera fan for years. With this album she came back and with great modern songs. The album didn’t reach all I expected in the media but for me it’s one of her best album.
4 – My Dying Bride “A Map of All our Failures” (2012)
This album is my favourite of this band, the songs are really heavy and desperate without being boring. The album is powerful and emotionnal. I love their way of making music.
5 – Indochine “Black City Parade” (2013)
Not their best album but probably one I listened a lot (with Paradize and Alice & June). Black City Parade contains really good songs but the album is quite too long. Without 2 or 3 songs it could be great.
6 – Icona Pop “Icona Pop” (2013)
Everybody knows that I always loved Female Pop and this band was representing for me a fresh air and gave me some inspirations for my most danceable songs.
7 – Tying Tiffany “Drop” (2014)
An artist I do love, this is her last album I think and probably her best (with “People Temple”).
8 – Lana Del Rey “Ultraviolence” (2014)
I fell in love with Lana Del Rey with her previous one, I was expecting an awesome album but this one was far higher than I expected. The songs are very powerful and emotionnal with great guitar arrangements. The albums that followed were much disapointing comparing to “Ultraviolence” and I can’t listened to them without being bored.
9 – The Mission “Another Fall From Grace” (2016)
I don’t really know all their career, I only knew their hit single but this album is really awesome. For all Gothic-Rock Fan!
10 – Gary Numan “Savage” (2017)
I didn’t know very much his career, only his early 80’s albums I listened many years ago. With this album I discovered a great artist who kept his unique voice since his first hit “Are friends electric”. His recent albums (since “Pure” in 2000) are perfect, I encourage you to listen these.
Today is a special day because it’s the Lyncelia Anniversary.
