Gilles, le petit Gilles … lance des oranges!? 🍊
This remake of the classic à;GRUMH… t-shirt from 1989 is now available from T-Merchandising, along with numerous other designs – check them all out over at Facebook (you’ll find information on how to order in the comments section beside every item). Hooray!
Have you ever seen an OFFICIAL à;GRUMH… music video!? No? It’s normal. We only made one and we’ve been hiding it ever since 1989 since it came out SO bad. But now we’re old, so what the fuck? It’s more funny than lame now. So ENJOY and share. Let’s make this famously bad! 🤣🤣 Don’t miss the end credits.
Release date is April 28th and you should pre-order it with a RECORD SHOP!!! Or online, yes. PIAS wants it to be bought at record shops, local dealers. Place a pre-order to them for the « PIAS 40 à;GRUMH… » EP. The reference is BIAS4006
Note : you can’t buy it from us, we don’t sell our records. We will also refuse to receive your copy and resend it signed. It’s too risky to send vinyls over the post and we can’t get it and then go queue at the post office to ship it etc. Just enjoy the sound and sign the inner sleeve in gold or silver or white marker yourself by writing « Grumh Grumh LOVE » and your name on it, make a photo of that and send it here! We will publish them all. It will be better and each will become unique. Let’s call this the Worldwide T-Circle signature performance 🌟
à;GRUMH… logo on a jacket, of one of the characters in one of the pages of the new comic book « Le Ferry » by Xavier Beteaucourt and Thierry Bouüaert.
Many bands of the early 80’s era are mentionned here and there. In that last page, the names on the side of the bar are famous Belgian punk and post-punk/new wave period such as Mad Virgins, X-Pulsion, etc.
Some of these bands featured some old musician friends including the late Micky Mike (from Snowy Red who was à;GRUMH…’s sound engineer from 1987 to 1990) and the sadly also late Jerry WX who played with us from 1988 to 1991.
The book is in french, set in the Brussels and London punk scene, and the book is published on Editions Delcourt / Mirage.
More information (including a playlist of music mentioned in the book) …
Breaking News! An official à;GRUMH… video will be revealed later this year.
It was made in 1990 in the middle of the WWWTour and shot in London. The song is █████████████████ (surprise) and the video has never been released because it’s really █████ (another surprise)!
Release planned around the time of the #PIAS40 EP release!
Wait and see!
Play it again, Sam! just informed us of the forthcoming release of a series of vinyl EP’s to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the label and recording company. This series of EP’s will feature all the iconic PIAS artists and one will be a 6 tracks EP of à;GRUMH… ! More news in the coming months!
Instrumental versions of à;GRUMH… songs and remixes now available!
A Soundcloud page has been created. It will feature unreleased tracks such as instrumental versions of à;GRUMH… plus remixes made by fans and other stuff.
Check it out!
My old friend Tomas Z Westberg a.k.a. TΔ25 has drawn several comic books telling the story of his teen years in 80’s Sweden and his love for EBM and general electronic music including à;GRUMH… whom he became later manager of the Swedish fan club and webmaster.
His books are now regrouped in one big edition translated in English and available for pre-order. It’s a great immersion in the life of young kids in that society four decades ago.
