Pénombre (Québec) - Lueur Noire (Album 2023)

The sophomore full-length record from Pénombre, 2 years after their excellent debut album in “Grande flamme“, and for the first time a solo recording by C.B. (Feufolet, Crapule, Complot!, Véreux, etc.). Aptly titled “Lueur Noire“, or black glow in english, indeed this record gives pace to nothing but darkness and utter negativism. Over half an hour of pitch black, old school Black Metal, honoring the 90s Norwegian scene, particularly Darkthrone’s unholy trinity, early Burzum and Gorgoroth, or other acts of darkened purity like Judas Iscariot or Skuggeheim. Bitter, hypnotizing misanthropy, praising anti-humanism and depression, as perfectly mastered with the cold, bitter riffage and the acute bleakness of the lyrics. Available digitally via Pénombre’s bandcamp.
