Demande À La Poussière - Kintsugi (2024)

cover

Hailing from France, today we have a pretty interesting outfit with Demande À La Poussière and their mysterious Blackened Post-Metal/Sludge music. In “Kintsugi”, the band unleashes eleven crushing tracks filled with crafty tempo changes, ripping riffs, and punishing vocals. Mixing elements from outfits like The Ocean, Downfall of Gaia, and sludgier outfits, the band creates a very piercing and unnerving unique style.

The band starts building a thunderous momentum with the crushing riffs of “Inapte”, masterfully crafting a very unnerving and yet immersive atmosphere, as it transitions to “Kintsugi” and “ La Parabole des Aveugles”, two tracks that showcase the band’s Sludginess. Weaving back and forth between hypnotic dreaminess and punishing dissonance, “Ichinawa” is our favorite track in this release thanks to its engaging tempo changes.

With each song being around 4 to 6 minutes long, the band creates different textures across the release, some more powerful than others like “Vulnerant Omnes, Ultima Necat”, “Attrition”, and the more experimental “Fragmenté” and “Miserere”, which introduce some crafty mood changes. The band seamlessly transitions into more introspective pieces with very polished transitions like “Brisé”, making them quite versatile and have a very polished style.

Overall, “Kintsugi” is one hell of a release that slowly builds momentum while punching the listener in the gut at every step. The music is complex and layered, but very well crafted and digestible. We particularly love how Sludgy this release is, with Demande À La Poussière showing some serious chops for creating excellent music. If you want something heavy and moody with plenty of harsh vocals, punishing guitars and sinister melodies, look no further and pick up a copy of this release.
