A large marine mammal classified in the order of cetaceans, the whale (« baleine » in french) is undoubtedly the largest animal that has ever lived on earth. This particular specimen has just come out of the ocean (somewhere between France and Japan), to settle in Paris in the form of a three piece band : two guitars plus drums. As light as Moby Dick, as sweet as Godzilla, Baleine emits sounds that can be heard from a thousand miles away. Beware, it can eat all the sailors in the neighborhood.

FR

Mammifère marin de grande taille classé dans l'ordre des cétacés, la baleine est sans doute le plus grand animal ayant jamais vécu sur terre. Cet exemplaire particulier est récemment sorti de l'océan (quelque part entre la France et le Japon), pour s'installer à Paris sous forme de trio à deux guitares plus batterie. Léger comme Moby Dick, gentil comme Godzilla, Baleine émet des sons qui peuvent être entendus à des milliers de kilomètres. Attention : bouffe tous les marins dans les parages.

大型の海洋哺乳類であるクジラは、間違いなく地球上で史上大型の海洋哺乳類であるクジラは、間違いなく地球上で史上最大の動物である。近日この巨大建造物様の一頭が、大西洋から上陸し（推定、フランスと日本の中間地点）ツインギターとドラムによるロックバンドとしてパリに定住。モビー・ディックのようにカワイく、ゴジラの様に優しいこのクジラの咆哮は、数千マイル離れたところでも観測されます。警告：至近の船員を食す恐れあり
