Les Thugs

Don't let the name scare you. They're really just a bunch of harmless punks who would rather fight politicians then people on the street. Formed back in 1983 these guys have pretty much come out with new music every year until 1999. That was when they decided to call it quits. Despite moving on after nearly 16 and the Internet generation where everybody can find them, Les Thugs did create a a name for themselves in the indie underground scene in both France and North America. If they decided to stick it out for just a few more years they might just have had some mainstream success.
