SOUPIR - Il Est D'étranges Soirs... TAPE

The first instalment of this French duo, which belongs to the Cërcle Mortüaire.

While most of the record follows quite closely the atmospheric black metal path, it brings a varied set of soundscapes. Each song has a different mood from the neofolk intro, the following two tracks in a rather atmospheric and depressive tone, or the fourth with clean vocals juggling from atmospheric to neofolk again moving onto a harsher black metal track to finally end in a mix of black and ambient. This fluidity works to their favour and allows them to present a rather magnificent songwriting.
