Departe absolutely nails a unique gritty, atmospheric, and melancholic sound.

Ulcerate with more memorable song writing. Clean vocals are a nice touch.

Failure, Subside was a tough album to appreciate. There’s just so many parts where there isn’t really anything ‘happening’ if you’re just passively listening. That passively listening ruined this for me the first few times. If you were to focus your attention on nothing but the music, though, you’d hear that the great use of atmospheric noise coupled with excellent riffs and melodies that slowly end up building towards a chaotic crescendo full of throat-shredding growls and relentless double bass. You’d figure out that each song kind of takes you on a journey through different movements that almost require those more subtle moments so that you’re not just beat over the head for 50 minutes. Going back and forth between atmospheric post metal and chaotic Ulcerate-inspired technical death metal, this is one hell of an album.

Départe strike gold when their peak song-writing is spiced up with experiments in composition and approach. At times they go in a more standard set black metal direction the project starts cracking a little. But the core curiosity remains, the clean vocals fit perfectly, atmosphere is dense and - as mentioned above - song-writing really is fantastic.
