Les Horribles Cernettes got their photo published in an HTML page 20 years ago. It was the first photo in the history of the web, which makes them the first music band in the history of the web too. Here’s how their song Collider sounds.

As it turns out, Les Horribles Cernettes—a band name that plays with CERN and the initials of the Large Hadron Collider—are not that bad… if you are a fan of the sound of girl groups from the 50s, that is. In any case, I like the tour of those old CERN’s facilities. And the love/physics lyrics too. Kind of. A little. On the inside. [Thanks Angel!]
