/:: ::\
:: ::
:: The black metal by this trio is resolutely original. Far from ::
:: the carbon copy of the winter tics of Norway from the roots, ::
:: tinged with symphonic ambitions, washed out of electro ::
:: impulses, it tickles the senses and dares something a little ::
:: different. It is therefore useful to specify to the blast ::
:: addicts that they can go their way. Tenebrae Fabulae flees free ::
:: linearity and ultraviolence. ::
:: ::
:: But what are these dark tales that the group offers to read ::
:: you? Stories of devil, bridge, ancient gods, and other ::
:: celebrations reserved for lovers of legends and evil that ::
:: spreads like a trail of powder. And these tales are set to ::
:: music with surprising brilliance, for a first album produced on ::
:: a intimate scale. By discovering "Bean Nigghe", you will have ::
:: the flavor of the Electro/Goth evenings of yesteryear, with ::
:: ethereal vocal scrolls, Beat dancing, and incantation in the ::
:: dark. ::
:: ::
:: And it's a pleasure that cannot be refused. ::
:: ::
:: But no ambiguity, Tenebrae Fabulae is purely black metal. The ::
:: album just dares to exceed certain limits and does not just ::
:: look at the navel. The musicians have composed songs that live, ::
:: that move, which are winding and inserted under your flesh, to ::
:: contaminate you as a clever virus. If the voice is classic and ::
:: scraped, the guitar sometimes borrows from the doom vocabulary ::
:: to tackle large and darkened riffs, while the versatile rhythm ::
:: created atmospheres, far from the systematic shelving of the ::
:: most traditional BM. ::
:: ::
:: To take as an album concept, Tenebrae Fabulae offers us pagan ::
:: atmospheres, and influenced by traditional metal. It is not ::
:: uncommon to come across a Heavy Lick, as on the very successful ::
:: "At New Age has come", which strikes, insists, still strikes, ::
:: and does not spare the sound effects. The melodic curls answer ::
:: the call, and the injunction is firm: to be taken or to leave. ::
:: We can think of the most oppressive and mid tempo Marduk, but ::
:: the identity of the Le Coven du Carroir is strong. And if ::
:: "Black Female" remains in the nails so as not to shock from the ::
:: start, "The Devil's Bridge" quickly deviates from the beaten ::
:: track to integrate operational sounds. ::
:: ::
:: The surprise is only greater and more pleasant. The addition of ::
:: synthetic strings only reinforces this impression of clan ::
:: celebration in local ruins, in search of esoteric answers to ::
:: fundamental questions. The disembodiment of choirs, this guitar ::
:: that laminates in the background, mixed well on the right, this ::
:: central voice which leaves a bitter taste in the ears, these ::
:: sudden covers in power, everything contributes to transforming ::
:: a simple listening into an endless night adventure possible. ::
:: ::
:: Storm, rain, croassements, the means are there, the ambition ::
:: too, and we never deplore the almost absolute absence of fast ::
:: passages, the insistence being the best weapon in the trio ::
:: which hardly needs to pack the tempo to impress. "Gods of old" ::
:: does it with it brilliantly, once again using this almost ::
:: martial rhythmic dairy and these songs of singing which are ::
:: superimposed like shrouds on an open coffin. ::
:: ::
:: We can hardly talk about atmospheric black, because the ::
:: symbolism is too clear. We will speak more easily of melodic ::
:: and conceptual black, having regard to these numerous ::
:: deviations which give rise to sharp and precise musical ::
:: paintings. And when efficiency replaces originality, "Wolf ::
:: Leader" resonates as a hymn, and perhaps even as a prediction: ::
:: Le Coven du Carroir will be the pack of a new generation of BM ::
:: artists. ::
:: ::
:: And sincerely, it is all the evil that I wish you gentlemen. ::
