| - Once upon a time, Montreal had an insane club scene.
Bars like Le Business, Le Lezard, Thunderdome, La Nausee, places where the locals were usually dressed in head-to-toe black and bumping, grinding and slam-dancing to underground/alternative heavyweights like Depeche Mode, Nitzer Ebb, KMFDM, Front 242, Meat Beat Manifesto, Soft Cell, Love and Rockets and The Cure and so much more.
When you actually grew up in that era, when that music first came out, you get spoiled. Music afterwards just does no justice to those days and judging from the comments I see at Youtube underneath the videos of some of these aforementioned bands, I know I'm not the only one who is feeling the same nostalgia.
So if you were into 80's alternative, old skool industrial dance, can't stand listening to Beyonce or Lady Gaga, Bar Passeport is the place for you. Sure you'll see old-timers whose waists are a little thicker, hair is a little greyer and yes, Passeport doesn't have the size of the old K.O.X/Station C club but if you're itching to dance to Nitzer Ebb's "Hearts and Minds" and want to automatically feel like 20 years has magically vanished, seriously come here, make a request to the DJ and dance your ass off.
