French alternative metal band Lofofora formed in 1989, ranking among France's most politically engaged outfits, with their blend of punk, alternative, and rap-metal and witty, concerned lyrics quite comparable to the work of Rage Against the Machine. Their album discography reached half a dozen titles by the late 2000s, at which time Lofofora encountered trouble with their fan base regarding the very existence of their MySpace page, which some fans deemed to be in complete opposition to the band's D.I.Y. punk ethics. The band's earlier position vis-à-vis the digital music market had previously garnered additional controversy, but Lofofora subsequently remained active despite such issues.

Lofofora is a French band in the Fusion Metal-Hardcore music genre. From the city of Paris, they write songs for protest and denounce some of the failings of French society. For example, the problems in the underdeveloped outskirts, the hypocrisy of the politics of the French Right Extreme leagues. Among their famous titles are "L'Oeuf", "Buvez du cul", and "No Fachos". This band was created in 1989 and plays concerts in France and also in Belgium, though they've crossed the ocean to produce themselves on stage in several cities of the Canadian province of Quebec.
Some members of the band also play(ed) in Mudweiser, Noxious Enjoyment, Artsonic and Destruction Incorporated.
