"Arisen in 2011 from the fertile scene of Montpellier,
France, VERDUN made a name in the realm of slow and
heavy music on the basis of a simple three-tracks demo,
leaving a strong impression on every witness of the
band's thunderous live shows. With a line-up solidified
after a few european tours and opening slots for
forefathers such as Electric Wizard, Eyehategod or YOB,
the band finally delivers their long-awaited debut
album, mixed and mastered by Tad Doyle.
"The Eternal Drift's Canticles" is the fruit of three
years of crafting; far from simple amp-worship, the band
excels at creating memorable tracks with their science
of instant-classic riffs. A richer background emanate
from these guitars, able to tint their sludge/doom roots
with metallic hardcore toughness or burden-of-the-world
melodies. Another strong component of VERDUN's trademark
sound comes from these charismatic vocals, switching
between echoed screams from outer space, spoken words or
mournful clean vocals. With an arid, heavy as hell
sound, "The Eternal Drift's Canticles" is a 55-minutes
dark and painful procession that transcends the heritage
of too-often codified scenes,running away from simply
rehashing the past."
