New album, “Clans Of The Alphane Moon”, out on November 1st!
Delving into the essence of their creative journey, the band shares insights into the theme of their upcoming opus: “For this album, on the level of inspiration, we started off with a delirium of ‘concept album,’ around SF, news from the 60s and 70s, old ‘Metal Hurlant,’ with redundant riffs, a bit disgusting leitmotifs that are found from one track to another. Ben’s lyrics, and the cover made again by our friend Tetar, also reflect this Space/SF atmosphere. This album was intended to be a mix of ‘Blood for the Bloodking’ and ‘Lost n’ Drunk’: strong, big heavy riffs from the first album, and big psychedelic space songs from the second. We still have time to put this one, almost 5 years, since we are big wankers and we are not able to organize ourselves haha! Now, we’re gonna let the old dog go back to his belly, lie down at the bottom of the bar, let him fall asleep, and bother him for a while.”
Crafted under the meticulous guidance of Guyome (drums in THE BOTTLE DOOM LAZY BAND) at The Cripple Room in France, the album’s recording, mixing, and mastering promise a refined auditory delight that will serve as a harmonious backdrop to the band’s distinctive sonic tapestry. Noteworthy collaborators, like Tetar, renowned for his visual marvels with CHILDREN OF DOOM, and the talented layout designer Tos, known for contributions to projects like BARABBAS and PRESUMPTION, have lent their artistry to create a captivating visual journey to complement the evocative musical narrative.
