baudelagon J'avais déjà écouté par-ci par-là Dirge. Le côté expérimental m'a toujours attiré mais j'ai souvent renoncé à approfondir. Aussi, quand un de leur album m'est apparu en name your price, je me suis dit que c'était enfin l'occasion de leur donner du temps.

about

Born from the will to deepen the most ambient side of DIRGE’s signature, “Alma | Baltica” recreates the bleak and monolithic band's shadow-play in its more atmospheric and abstract version.
By working on spaces, resonances, repetitions as well as textures and effects, DIRGE shows here its ghostly avatar made of analogic keys, rippling guitars, enfolding electronics, mesmerizing loops and echoing rhythms.
Voiceless journey between ethereal lines and industrial soundscapes piercing a laid bare wall of sound, “Alma | Baltica” is a real distinct experiment in the band's discography.
For fans of: Tribes of Neurots, Earth, Godspeed! You Black Emperor, Asva, Sunn O)))…
