Rare archive around French alternative rock. L’Usine was a squatted place since 1983 rue Kleber in Montreuil which had become a meeting place and concert venue for the Parisian alternative rock scene (Bérurier, Ludwing von 88, Mano Negra, Garçons Bouchers…). The place had been closed by the police headquarters and the entrance walled up. A pitched battle ensued between the regulars and the police. This fanzine looks back on the events and the expulsion of the animators. “Rock must live”. A valuable testimony to this remarkable cultural adventure and the blind repression that struck it.
