Some more coldwave of the French variety for you folks today...The band is L'Enfance Éternelle, formed in 1983. The band rose to prominence in their home country, appearing on television and touring with similar bands Opera De Nuit and Babel 17, but hardly broke further than France, a plague that most of coldwave (and minimal) bands fell to. The band would release two short LPs during their tenure, and demoed material for their third record before splitting in 1990. Members formed their own bands, including the likes of Garlic Frog Diet, and Bob's Your Uncle.
I've uploaded their first record, 1986's Le Jour Des Fous, which was recorded live in concert, crowd noise and all.

If anyone's French is in working order, here's links for both the band's homepage and myspace profile. Also, the band has released their entire discography on a two-disc collection on Infrastition records (notorious for their re-releases of classic coldwave records), so if you've got the money and means, pick it up!
