The second "french" Chrome record is a great collection of straightforward acid rock: long songs textured by the usually fuzzed guitars, DX7-like synthesizers and the machine-like drums coupled with the low tone voice of Damon. However some people can think it's lacked in weirdness and it's quite linear for a Chrome album... even the cover art looks uninspired. But even when a Damon album looks half good, there's always a sparkle of (dysfunctional) genius. It's something that you can't put a word on, the manifestation of a person stuck with himself and his crazy music and ideas... dandy in a stranger land, stranger from another world.
