Parade Ground
Parade Ground are a Belgian band , created by two brothers , Jean-Marc Pauly and Pierre Pauly in 1981. They were pioneers of cold wave and EBM . Their first single ‘Moan on the sly’, was released in 1983 and they remained active until now (although they decided not to release anything between 1988 and 2007 , being involved in other artistic projects such as writing and plastic art . Their style evolved during the years 1980 passing from an icy and radical cold wave to more danceable sound with stressed rhythmics and exclusively synthetic melodies , sustained by an ironical dadaist visual . They regularly collaborated with members of Belgian band Front 242 , have worked with English producer Colin Newman from Wire and have written and composed on two Front 242 albums in 1994 . They have often toured in various countries from Europe and have been an inspiration to many bands .
A new album ‘Rosary’ was released in 2007 produced by Patrick Codenys (Front 242) . The band have acquired a solid live reputation (the choreography of chaos).
The future is now .
