Rose / Lavender

by Sadness

supported by

Jordan Vauvert L'automne et le bois mort des forêts sous la grisaille ; l'hiver, la neige, la glace et la dépression... Sadness a multiplié les peintures de ces deux saisons au début de sa carrière. Le diptyque Rose / Lavender change subtilement la perspective puisque ces deux fleurs s'épanouissent au cœur du printemps. Plus énergique, toujours aussi triste, Damián consume la vie autour de lui.

《 Les pétales tombés des cerisiers de mai
Sont les ongles de celle que j'ai tant aimée 》
— Guillaume Apollinaire. Favorite track: Rose.

Visual Complexity Two long and emotional songs is all you get and all you ever need on this album. "Rose" is more of a chaotic song, while "Lavender" is more of a slow melancholic journey. I also love the artwork, which perfectly sums up the feelings that'll surface in this trip. Favorite track: Lavender.

CARPAGE So 💔💔💔💔and beautiful. Favorite track: Lavender.

Caleb Bratcher Too often atmospheric black metal comes with mediocre and stereotypical vocals. Artists and bands try to pull off the haunting, wretched vibe by doing the same thing everyone else has done for the past 30 years and it just doesn't work anymore. This artist manages to throw that all aside with the almost choir-like vocals that really give some depth to the music. Sadness excels at really making the metal beautiful instead of simple chaos. Favorite track: Lavender.

Valfaun deeply depressive, melodic, cathartic;
"Rose" hurts in the best way possible Favorite track: Rose.

I was always intrigued by this group's choice of album covers, it isn't every day that you see high quality space photos in this genre despite the rise of "cosmic" black metal. But the music blew me away, this sounds like Austere took the atmospheric spacey route. (I will assume it's a coincidence that both bands are Australian) porcelainheart-

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE

supported by 109 fans who also own “Rose / Lavender”

On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs... Jordan Vauvert

The Density Parameter
by Mesarthim

supported by 98 fans who also own “Rose / Lavender”

Dans The Density Parameter, Mesarthim reprend tous les ingrédients qui font leur marque de fabrique : des pistes assez longues au rythme énergique (très palpable sur "Recombination" par exemple) et jouant sur des structures cycliques, un chant qui erre parmi les étoiles... Les ambiances sont prolifiques mais elles changent la donne : gracieuses, certes, mais surtout plus mélancoliques qu'autrefois. The Density Parameter est un peu la dernière bouffée d'oxygène que donne la combinaison spatiale. Jordan Vauvert
