Blind Delon, formed in 2016 by Mathis Kolkoz in Toulouse, France, is an intriguing figure in the post-punk and cold wave musical scene. Drawing inspiration from the bleak yet emotive sounds of the early ’80s underground music movement, Blind Delon fuses classic elements of darkwave with a fresh, modern vigor. The brainchild of Kolkoz, who initially began as a solo project which then expanded into a trio, has garnered attention for its brooding melodies and introspective lyrics.

With a discography characterized by its evocative titles often in French, such as "La Violence," "L'Envie," and "La Mort," Blind Delon crafts a soundscape that is both nostalgic and novel. Their music is a striking combination of synth-heavy tracks and haunting vocal lines, underpinned by a palpable sense of melancholy and introspection. Furthermore, tracks like "Russians" and "Divine Practicalities" showcase Blind Delon's ability to explore beyond their established style, subtly integrating influences from techno and other contemporary genres. The band is making its mark with a sound that is at once accessible and deeply enigmatic, appealing to a new wave of post-punk aficionados and veteran listeners alike.
