Hey Mr. Avenger this is not ignorant and has nothing to do with knowledge.I really don't care how much someone knows about french metal; what was said was an extremely generalized opinion. It has nothing to do with knowledge or facts.
It is a matter of my personal taste and I prefer French vocals to English vocals in French metal. That was the whole statement i made...

Best example here is SORTILEGE with "Heroes tears" and "Larmes de heros" I think there is no discussion on this...at least for me personally
Everyone can listen what he wants for sure. In US metal I prefer English vocals


So answering the other questions: No I am not from France but I was born 5 kilomters next to France and spent my youth and most holidays there. So I love French language, music, food, landscape, culture etc...
For the release: No, not VENIN. A little hint. The band released a 7" only
