CORPUS DELICTI

Corpus Deliciti 21st February 2026 @The Leeds Warehouse

Formed in Nice in 1992 around Sébastien (vocals), Franck (guitar), Chrys (bass) and Roma (drums), Corpus Delicti's melodic, hard-hitting post-punk rock immediately made an impact, with their debut album 'Twilight' (1993) becoming a benchmark for the genre. Fusing the best of post-punk with remarkable energy, creativity and melody, the band made a name for themselves abroad with a US tour and concerts in Europe.

They are regularly ranked in the Top gothic rock worldwide; the website Sens Critique even lists them as one of the 35 must-haves of the genre, alongside the likes of Cure, Bauhaus and Joy Division, stating that "their second album is a masterpiece of the genre". The Italian music magazine Ascension refers to them as "an incredible mix between Bowie, Bauhaus and Christian Death". In 2025, the prestigious UK magazine Uncut published a special issue on the 200 essential gothic rock albums, and they were the only French band to feature alongside Kas Product, with the album ‘Sylphes’. !
