Profond Barathre & Rorcal & Malvoisie

Greetings! Things are running a little bit slow here on FxC but i have not forgotten all you guys & gals out there, so today i bring you one of my latest addictions, this collaborative release between Profond Barathre & Rorcal & Malvoisie. 3 bands, 3 tracks, 3 approaches. In the aim of creating something special (or uncreating for others), this collaborative work has been a very long process to visualize something more than just a gathering of songs with single identities. But rather to shape a story through 45 minutes of darkness, atmospheric, violent and hysterical waves of sound and screams. Opening with Profond Barathre, followed by Rorcal and finalized by Malvoisie. 3 chapters to be discovered in one straight listening. I'm unfamiliar with the work of Profond Barathre and Malvoisie, i only know Rorcal from this triad. Although i love Rorcal to death, definitely one of the best sludge/doom acts coming out of Europe, i still believe that this band isn't getting the attention they really deserve, seriously, they have done some amazing work, and they just keep on getting better and better, and proving that is their track on this release... simply amazing. Rorcal is one amazing beast of its kind. They have done a lot of hard work, carrying a very praising DIY attitude, so the least you can do is support them by buying something. You won't regret it, trust me.

This collaborative release is available for free, although i strongly advise you to get a physical copy here. It's limited to 200 copies and released by their hand through CALOFROR Records. Highly recommended.

    Great blog. Keep up the good work!

  2. Cheers! By the way, can you recommend me any other bands that sound like Profond Barathre (particularly on this release)? I love that ambient, gregorian chanting with the occasional metal pulling though. It's awesome.

    Rorcal still own this release, but that PB track is real haunting and meditative, i love it!

    1. Hmmmm.... exactly like PB i'm not sure (with the gregorian chants & stuff), but check out Celestiial, Life in the Dark, Nortt, Sembler Deah, Wolvserpent, Echthros (this last one features some gregorian chants).
