Ludwig Von 88
Info
Ludwig von 88 is a French punk rock and alternative rock band mostly active in the 1980s and 1990s, celebrated in the French underground scene. The band has not released any new material since 2019 but has not officially disbanded. Their music is quite similar to that of influent French punks Bérurier Noir (both bands were initially signed with the Bondage Records indie rock label): two-fingered and distorted guitar chords and drum machine as a drummer but can also imitate reggae or medieval music ("Messire Quentin"). Their lyrics evolved along their career from nonsensical and often juvenile humour to something more serious and sometimes social and political.
