Music in French?
jimbunny:
A lot of Keren Ann's music is in French. About half of Nolita, which is really good.

There is a band by the name of les sans coulllot, that my brother was really into a few years back.
Their song SOS elefant, is the one song I have ever preformed on stage... loooong story.

What about his daughter? Did anyone here see Science of Sleep? She sings in both english and french, but listen to her anyway.
Louise Attaque are a very famous french group and their stuff is pretty easy to get. If you life folky rock, check them out.
Also, Yann Tiersen. I'm sure you already know he's the man responsible for the amazing soundtracks of Amelie and Goodbye Lenin. His latest album is what you're looking for, it's mostly vaguely experimental, distorted, indie-ish rock. His previous work is mostly instrumental but try listening to it nonetheless.

There's a suite of rilke's french love poems set to music by Morton Lauridsen (one of the greatest living choral composers) to be found here:

It's on the CD 'Lux Aeterna' on that site. You probably won't get it without buying it. Somewhere in my room I have a CD of my college choir performing one of the pieces. I was going to upload the track, but I can't find it. :/
ampersandwitch:
W5 is pretty much as comprehensible as a French punk band is going to be, but they are catchy and dancey as hell, so go ahead.
