Manigance - D'un autre sang (2004)

I've said before that I like it when non-English speaking (at least as their first language) bands sing songs in their mother tongue, even if I can't understand what they're singing about. It's a reason why I quite like Spanish group Tierra Santa.  Manigance is a French act who is similar (singing in French, not Spanish), but their debut, admittedly, did not do a lot for me.  This follow-up is quite similar, but I really tried hard to get into it, and maybe that's why I'm rating it a bit higher. It's hard to pin point a particular song, as there's not a heap of variety here, but the concluding "Enfin délivré" is as good as any of them and, overall, it's a professional, skilfull effort.
