OES GALLIATH - Sous L'Oeil Ferme Des Paradis (12" DOUBLE LP on Violet Vinyl)
France | Black
Detailed Description
French black metal mavericks Oes Galliath return after 10-year hiatus with their farewell album "Sous l'oeil ferme des paradis". Released on November 23rd 2020 via Nebular Carcoma Records (2xLP). Spanning from nauseous black metal spleen & intoxicated crust-punk beats to sheer acoustic contemplation, psychedelic leads and soaring arrangements, "Sous l'œil ferme des paradis" constantly challenges the listener's conception of black metal. Carried by Odivm's haunting poetic stanzas, each track paints its own introspective, chemically induced, sonic daydream. Including a daring cover of french pop-rock legend Hubert-Felix Thiefaine's classic 1982 tune : "Les Dingues et Les Paumes". As well as a violin interlude written & performed by Hufsa from French Ambient projects Fiel & Revoeil. Far from the traditional reverence, Oes Galliath's swansong is an act of defiance in itself. A ghastly testament of escapism from the industrial suburbs of Paris. A death letter to the ancient world. An ode to spiritual awakening and personal growth. Long live !
