"Year Of No Light formed in 2001 in Bordeaux (Fr). With their first album, Nord, YONL have proven adept a shifting seamlessly between genres, balancing post-rock, sludge, somber psychedelics and crushing dark shoegaze. In 2010, now backed by two drums, 3 guitars, the band released its second album, Ausserwelt, oscillating between drone, doom, post-rock, black metal and progressive music."

Since 2002, MONARCH have been France’s most recognized and active extreme doom metal band, through countless touring all over the world (which has recently included multiple tours of Japan within the last few years) and delivering a myriad of releases on multiple respected labels of some of the most punishing amplifier worship that has befallen doom metal alongside the likes of such like-minded bands as Corrupted, Noothgrush, Burning Witch, and Khanate. This has earned them the reputation as one of the most recognized and respected underground extreme doom metal bands in the scene today. With their new album “Never Forever”, France’s cult extreme doom metal band MONARCH continue their singular style of punishing ritualistic drone doom and take it towards more melancholic territories. Even more ghostly, atmospheric, and haunting than its predecessor, 2014’s “Sabbracadaver”, “Never Forever” sees the five-piece take even more form and shape with their songwriting while still harnessing that plodding, down-tuned, and crushing low-end that has become their signature rhythmic backdrop to vocalist Emilie Bresson’s enchanting and spellbinding vocals. With the more melancholic tone and vibe of “Never Forever”, Bresson adapts her vocals in a more ethereal and delicate manner likewise, while still juxtaposing them with her otherworldly harsh shrieks.

Lethvm, a Belgian band formed in 2015 evolves in a heavy and torn atmosphere, between devastation and candor.
The four members draw their influences in the darkness of life by inserting beauty, rage and melancholy in their melodies.

After the release of their first EP "affable érosion" in 2016, the band hits the road across Belgium and France playing alongside bands like Bathshiba, Regarde Les Hommes Tomber, Swart Crown, Telepathy, Mr Marcaille, Plèvre.

Throughout the same year, the band composes their first album "This Fall Shall Cease" who was recorded in May 2017 by Nicola Lomarti at Noise Factory Studio in Namur.

The Band searches to transcribe the dark atmosphere that sweats during their live performances and adds the musical richness allowed by the studio sessions. The album gets a strong identity, but also tries to throw a new eye on the underground music world.
