Present is a Belgian avant-progressive rock group formed by guitarist Roger Trigaux in 1979. Trigaux was a founding member of Univers Zero and participated on the first two albums. After Heresie (1979) he left Univers Zero to concentrate on his own vision and founded Present. The early lineup of Present featured fellow Univers Zero members Daniel Denis and Christian Genet playing drums and bass respectively. Present disbanded after releasing Le Poison Qui Rend Fou in 1985, but reformed a decade later in 1993.
