Unbelievable, but this even managed to scare me. This is (d)evil. Watch out, it may gain power over you.
Goes to my all time list after 3 listens. Incredible album. YomaBarr
I will admit that for the longest time I had lost hope in the DSBM scene, because the underground bands I felt were missing something, but I'm glad to say that "Alone" isn't like the rest. The music is deeply emotional and the screams are truly honest. Every song is just killer. Visual Complexity
Crushing blackened doom from this German band that counterbalances blinding fury with moments of surprising, melancholy melody. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 8, 2023
Tokyo band contrast black metal's brutal complexity with shoegaze's abyssal grandeur, resulting in an LP that feels crushing, yet infinite. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 24, 2022
Creuser le DSBM qui avait de quoi nous enterrer six pieds sous terre de Ter Ziele (arrêtez de lire ça tout de suite et ecoutez-le si vous ne l'avez pas fait : ça ne sera pas inutile !) : tel est le credo de Déhà avec The Penitent. Before it all est une interminable chute ; d'abord atmosphérique, le DSBM se fait progressivement plus lent et funéraire puis ambiant sur la fin. Deux voix assurent le chant, celles de Déhà et Nokt Aeon, et deviennent parfois de vrais appels à l'aide traumatisants... Jordan Vauvert
