Einer geht heute noch and we travel southwest to the Mediterranean Sea and meet an Oi!/Punk combo there: Warrior Kids. Formed in Marseille 1982 by Marc (vocals/bass), Thierry (guitar/vocals), René (drums) and after a few rehearsals in August 1983 they go to Hirondelle Studios near Montpellier to record two tracks in two days. It's thanks to the boss of the Punk clothing store "Fa7" who gives them money to help them out. The 45rpm Adolescent/Forces De L'ordre was printed in 1000 copies and was published in early January. The cover photo is taken behind the Plaine district in Marseille and soon they will appear for a concert in Aix. The group stops for damn military service but however, they found time to record their debut for the 77KK label at the Auris studios in Marseille in September 1985, which already included the track 'Ville Morte' for the 77KK label compilation. The album Les Enfants De L'Espoir... was distributed by New Rose and released in 1986 when they returned from the army. Thierry left the band and the group stopped giving gigs and disbanded.
In 1993 they came back with Pierrot as new guitarist and a new 7Inch Don't Tell Me Lie was released and they gave a furious concert at the Haunted House. After another hiatus they came back at the beginning of the millennium and finally set their way through and with Marc at the helm of the trio the Warriors Kids have produced more than ten albums and recorded many of their concerts which they have performed in USA and Canada as well as in Belgium, Germany, Switzerland & Spain. Enjoy two delicious stomper!
