Nantais homies (oh yeah boiz eat tha galette) coming back again with their trademark atmoblack with sludgy tints. It's not as immediate as Exile or s/t, but the band still knows how to pull out nasty riffs. Back in 2013, they found their formula: an intro, a slapping first track, a whopping last one, and good riffs in the middle. Even though you could argue they're lacking originality by repeating this recipe, they know how make it work. However, I feel the album truly picks up with the fourth track, The Crowning, making this my least fave of them. Still top kwaliteit though, and a different beast than the first two; the most distinctive change is the singing: less "depressive" and much more raging, which on the one hand decreases the ominous atmosphere but brings a newfound violence. The album ends with these last four words: Regarde les hommes tomber, concluding the trilogy of one of the most exciting bands of the last decade. Plus did I tell you they're from Nantes?
