Биография

French Alternative Rock Metal Steady force has a name: The Long Escape. After a first album acknowledged by specialized press (« THE TRIPTYCH » 2011), TLE has since released two more efforts « The WARNING SIGNAL » (2015) and a self titled album (2020). Active since 2009 and a dissolution in 2017, the syrian/french band reassembles forcely in 2022 with a new line up, ready to conquer radio waves with still Kimo commanding the ship. Cutting edge riffs, trippy ambiances, sometimes rageful, sometimes gloomy, TLE’s universe swings between influences going from Porcupine Tree, A Perfect Circle, Faith No More to Genesis, Craig Armstrong,…a melting pot sound we can find in their music and on stage. Themes approached by TLE are societal: human relations, resiliency, space journey, the search of oneself… « The promess done by The Long Escape is helded, put your earphones, close your eyes and lift off » -W-FENEC « TLE is the French band to discover » -METALORGIE « TLE is at the gates of the greatest of the genre » - FRENCH METAL « Kimo and his gang should easily jump over the stages towards a beautiful and large recognition » - MUSIC WAVES « The Long Escape is a promising band from the metal scene » - ROCK METAL MAG « TLE can be proud of the work done and the quality of its doing will push, we hope so, numerous persons to discover their universe » - METAL CHRONIQUES Line Up: Kimo: Vocals/Guitars Niko LP: Guitars Martin Chardey: Bass Maēl Reussard : Drums / Samples
