"Soissons was born from the unnatural coupling of the Age of Empires 2 map editor and a burned CD of Screaming For Vengeance. Tonight, he will be the Dungeon Master for a Dungeons & Dragons game that is both epic and poetic, set in the world of Iron Maiden." This is how the twisted mind behind this "one-man medieval and anticapitalist bard" (again, his own words) usually announces his concerts. And we assure you that if the program seems a little too ambitious to be true, it's because you're not quite ready for what's about to happen on *Souviens-Toi*, his first LP due out in mid-September. Because we could also mention dogs, chainmail, torrid love affairs between knights, swords, and even more chainmail in a synth-noise epic that sounds like a perfect blend of Depeche Mode with a troubadour twist and a DAVA show from 1123. And if the album doesn't fulfill all its promises, we'll let you stone us with your 20-sided dice, you nerds.
