Michel Langevin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Michel Langevin (stage name: Away) is a founding member and drummer for the metal/cyberpunk band Voivod. He has been a constant member of the band since its formation in 1982. Langevin is credited with the creation of the mythology of the post-apocalyptic vampire lord Voivod, about which the band originally coalesced, and is largely responsible for its continuing science fiction themes.
Langevin is also a well established graphic design artist. He has created all of Voivod's artwork, as well as the artwork for the probot album.
Langevin has also cowritten songs for J. G. Thirlwell's Steroid Maximus and drummed on Men Without Hats' Sideways (1991)
