(The True) Scorpio Rising is the solo project of Antoine, former guitarist in G.I. Love. When the G.I. Love split in 1991 after two psychedelic hardcore albums ("16 Hardcore Romances" produced by All or Nothing in 1989 and "Chemical Gardens" in 1991 by Go Get Organized), Antoine takes a break from music in order to focus on his studies in philosophy.
Few years later, he forms an electric guitar/cello duet with cellist Justine, who's got a classical training. Together, they compose and record a great number of tracks that, added to Antoine's solo composition and recordings, become the album "The Blues Resurrection Project", released in 2000 and produced by Philippe Laurent, pioneer of electronic music in France. Then, the duet splits on friendly terms and Antoine pursues his project on his own, with his guitar, his voice, and few machines. The album "Born/Reborn" is finished in 2002 and followed by "The Invisible Society" in 2003 and "Brain Catalogue" in 2004. After the latter, the former bassist from G.I.Love and now jazz double-bass player Stéphane plays in three titles of "Modern Slaves", which he co-signs with Antoine.
In 2006, the album "I know you but you don't know me" introduces itself as a concept-album exploring the themes of family and incest as it was inspired by Antoine's experience as a nurse in various psychiatric institutions. In 2010, Antoine finishes "Phallus Imperator", which he presents as the first lacanian rock opera. In (The True) Scorpio Rising, the music combines influences from post-free jazz, black metal, hardcore from the 90s and orchestral music of the 20th century. The lyrics most often describe the situation of the modern man, the man with no God nor master, always looking for new ways of alienating himself, and permanently threatened by madness.
