Black Metal - Brigitte Bardot

[Noche de Rock]

Mira Panoli, que esto te va a gustar.

French black metal vanguard SETH unveil a radical reinterpretation of Serge Gainsbourg’s infamous 1968 ode to Brigitte Bardot with their new music video for “Initials B.B.”. Originally steeped in orchestral melancholy and sensual decadence, this new incarnation emerges as a ceremonial descent through the fractured heart of post-Christian France—a realm haunted by divine absence, erotic delirium, and the relics of fallen gods.

Framed as a bonus piece to the revolutionary liturgy of La France des Maudits, this rendition emerges as a new chapter in the band’s ongoing rite of desecration. Coinciding with the one-year anniversary of the album’s release, timed with Bastille Day, the video deepens the mythos of a France scorched by desire and spiritual collapse. As the republic recalls its hour of uprising, SETH conjures another insurrection: one of shadows and silhouettes, where sound and image bleed together in an unholy communion.A well-balanced and finely produced record that honours the legacy of French black metal.A well-balanced and finely produced record that honours the legacy of French black metal.

Within the album’s iconoclastic cosmology, the figure of Bardot is reimagined as a mythic seductress; a corrupted Marianne veiled in red, muse to apostasy and forbidden glamour. Where Gainsbourg once sighed, SETH now roars, threading her memory into the scarlet lineage of the album’s insurgent saints, diabolical poets, and cast-out lovers.

Sin conocer nada del resto del repertorio de los tales seth, yo diría que han grabado esta versión sin poner especial ilusión en ello.
