Les hommes morts sont dangereux
Les hommes morts sont dangereux (Dead Men are Dangerous) is the only studio album by the French electro-punk band Métal Urbain. It was released on vinyl in 1981 and has been re-released several times since. A 2003 Japanese release on Polystar is a double CD with extra tracks, and a 2006 French edition on Seventeen Records was a limited 25th‑anniversary CD with two bonus tracks.
The album collects songs from the band's singles from the previous three years—Paris Maquis, Hystérie connective, and Panik—along with John Peel BBC Radio 1 session recordings. Its style includes punk rock, noise punk, and post-punk.
Original labels for the release were Celluloid and Bizz Records; later re-releases appeared on Seventeen Records, Felicity, and Polystar. The producers were Tony Platt and Doug Bennett.
In Métal Urbain’s discography, it sits before the 1985 fan-club compilation L'age d'or.
