Hanternoz (FRA) – Au Fleuve de Loire DLP

Black Metal
“Au Fleuve de Loire” is the 3rd album of Hanternoz, following 2 concept-splits, 1 EPs compilation and 2 albums, the last of which came in 2010.
“Au Fleuve de Loire” is meant to be a tribute to the longest, largest of french rivers, the Loire. For the first time a river is the main character of a black metal album, and here is why : wildest and most protected big river of France, it is also the frontier of the 2 main languages of France until modern times. Making access to Atlantic ocean direct to Paris thanks to the stream downwards and the perfect winds upwards, the river quickly became the “Kings’ river, and King of Rivers” as many fortresses, ruling places and châteaux were installed on its banks.
The river is here presented in many ways, from the Natural point of view of endangered species to the many drowned souls it carriers, from the industrial era and mecanisation to the medieval history, from the fishing industry (viewed from the fishes’ point of view!) to the memories of the lyricist’s childhood.
Musically, the sound is stronger, more powerful, carried by a variety of guests and helping hands. Most worked and accomplished album of the band so far, it also lyrically confirms the bands status of mystical approach of ancient tales.

RUTTOKOSMOS are one of the great “what if?”s of Finnish black metal. The band formed sometime in 2003 and released the five-song Ja minä näin kuoleman demo in 2006 and then the six-song Kärsimys demo a year later. Afterward, nothing was heard from RUTTOKOSMOS ever again. Only one member concurrently played in Divina Inferis, and the other two members either disappeared and played pseudonymously in other bands.

One of the most accomplished newcomers Signal Rex has come across in recent years, the shadowy entity of Valais burst from the voidal womb fully formed in the middle of 2021 with their self-titled debut album. Despite existing in the vast (and vastly inconsistent) wilderness of Bandcamp, Valais in fact imparted a power and poignancy that takes most bands at least a couple records to reach, if at all. Both classically composed and forward-thinking, Valais understood right from the start the core tenets of true black metal, but equally understood how to inject their own personality and poise into such to create something that adds to the language of BLACK METAL rather than mimics its speech patterns (and sloppily so).
No, Valais as a work is a towering monument of tension and release, skillful contours and subtle dynamics, richly malevolent melody and slipstreaming violence. Aesthetic touchstones include the likes of Slidhr, latter-day Leviathan, and even Blut Aus Nord at their wiliest, but Valais also exhibit an understated sense of the pagan – perhaps stemming from their native Ireland, or perhaps from some strange cosmos far beyond our comprehension… Either way, all of this coalesces into a whilrlwinding five-song/37-minute experience that feels far vaster than that succinct runtime otherwise suggests. As such, Signal Rex is honored to rightfully release this tome in all physical formats.
