Fardeaux are a duo from France that has had music reviewed before in this plays a very avant garde and dissonant form of black metal and this is a review of their 2023 album "The Den has Become An Abyss" which will b e released on April 28yh by Drowning in Chaos Records.
A very dark, heavy and dissonant sound starts off the album while the vocals are mostly angry sounding black metal screams. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing at times along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style and the music also has its avant garde moments.
During the faster sections of the songs a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the album more of a raw feeling. Angry shots can also be heard in certain sections of the recording along with most of the tracks also being very long and epic in length and synths are also added on some of the tracks.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with one song also introducing clean playing and spoken word parts onto the album, clear singing can also be heard briefly. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are written in a mixture of English and French and cover darkness and misery themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recordintg from Fardeaux and if you are a fan of avant garde and dissonant black metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Siéger Sur Le Trône De La Honte Et Du Mépris" " Le Rituel Du Double" and "Aube Dernière". 8 out of 10.
