Born Bad Records is a French record label based in Paris. Since its establishment, the label has been dedicated to showcasing unique and boundary-pushing music from a diverse range of artists. With an impressive roster of talented musicians, *Born Bad* has become synonymous with innovation and creativity in the music industry.

Founded in [year], *Born Bad* quickly gained recognition for its commitment to releasing high-quality vinyl records that span various genres including rock, punk, garage, and electronic music. The label's passion for supporting independent artists and fostering artistic freedom has earned them a loyal following both locally and internationally.

Over the years, *Born Bad* has released critically acclaimed albums from notable acts such as *artist1*, *artist2*, and *artist3*. These artists have consistently pushed boundaries with their distinctive soundscapes and thought-provoking lyrics. Whether it's raw punk energy or experimental electronic beats, each release from the label showcases the immense talent within their roster.

Third LP for Born Bad for Guillaume Marietta, recorded just under the name Marietta, who went back to some of his favourite records from his teenage years for inspiration - Sonic Youth, Beck, Nirvana, the Beastie Boys - but also Jim O'Rourke and David Pajo. 

Marietta was one of the key players of the GrandeTriple Alliance De l'Est, an anarchic scene which exploded between Metz and Strasbourg in the early 2000s, fronting bands such as A.H. Kraken, Plastobe´ton and The Feeling Of Love. In 2015 he released his first solo album, 'Basement Dreams Are The Bedroom Cream', an amazing collection of 4-track twisted lullabies who got him comparisons with Syd Barrett and John Frusciante. His second LP ditched the sweet demo sounding folky weirdness, 'La Passage`re' was recorded in Los Angeles with Chris Cohen and it's a lush and mesmerizing record, like Berlin with windows wide open or a sun-drenched The Idiot. 

'Prazepam St.' on the other hand is a dark and twisted record, as its title shows - a reference to an anxiolytic used for severe depression. "I have often tried to speak in my lyrics of the way the human mind works, of our contradictions, of our inner darkness, explains Marietta. And this time I wanted to bring the lexical field of drugs into my texts. Our body and mind are shaped by these substances that we use and abuse and I wanted to play with that. It's a chemical album."
