Introducing the new album from French hybrid post-metallers DDENT, who return with a new lineup and a creative spark after a three-year hiatus. Recorded live in two takes, this volcanic five-song album pulls from previous material, twisting and re-arranging it until the songs become a completely different beast. Heavier, louder, more powerful and more cathartic. With new drummer Alain Minot (ex-20 Seconds Falling Man) and occasional blackened vocals from bassist Nicolas Zivkovich (Les Tigres du Futur, Fiend, Krv), DDENT's trademark hypnotic post-metal takes on more tension and devastating firepower on "Feeding the Void's Luster".
It's out July 24th via their own label, Chien Noir.
DDENT formed in the early 2010s as the instrumental brainchild of guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Louis Lambert and drummer Marc Le Saux. First EP Chien Noir was released in 2014, which quickly led to the addition of live musicians to the project. This milestone laid the foundations for a dark post-rock sound that induces a gripping spiritual and sensory journey. While 2017 debut LP آكتئاب narrated the introspective journey of a poet, their sophomore album TORO (2018) dealt with the search for truth through creation. It is safe to say that literature and philosophy have always been a centerpiece of DDENT's music.
In 2019, DDENT performed at Europe's largest metal festival Hellfest, tantalizing both the audience and critics with their bewitching performance. As a result, Louis Lambert started working on the follow-up album Couvre-sang — a massive and poetic post-metal 11-track awash with dark, elegant atmospheres and intriguing thematics, described as "pure instrumental industrial bliss, a living breathing beast, crafted superbly, with real emotional levels" by The Sleeping Shaman. In 2021, Lambert kept working as a solo act and released a cinematic single and video entitled "VOLEMOI". 2023 saw the talented songwriter's return with the Ex Auditu 2xEP on Chien Noir, then entering hiatus... until now.
