Raemar Déhà bequeaths such an emotive account of humanity, we listeners are essentially tracing the geography of scars. Such vulnerability is deeply respected. The entirety of this heart-rending masterpiece causes one to cease all, reflect and absorb. Thank you, Déhà for this stunning relinquishment. Favorite track: I Am Mine to Break (Acoustic Reprise).

about

"Blackness in May - Promotional EP" is a single from the upcoming album "Cruel Words" with three exclusive songs, in order to promote this said album. More than twenty five minutes of emotional music, in which Déhà drowns the listener in a pure soulripping mood, filled up with the emotions he is now known for. A super heavy mixture of depressive music drenched with the power of atmospheric sludge doom metal music.

This EP includes as well a beautiful piano & voice version of a song to be featured on "Cruel Words", showcasing Déhà's vocal range from whispered singing to cracking, powerful depressed singing. Also, a personal favourite song of the musician was covered through an amazing, immensely heavy version of "Saturnine" of Dutch band The Gathering - and while it is not easy to mimic the angelic voice of Anneke, Déhà took the song and made it his own : emotion and power as main feelings, on a downtempo version of this fantastic song. At last but not least, "Comfort me II" is an astonishing power ballad he decided to record as a bonus, knowing he still keeps somewhere the original version (and the first part!) well hidden.

It is not an easy EP to listen to, as almost all of his works. It rips open the heart and let all emotions out, whether it is through melodies or insane screams.

"Blackness in May" is just a taste of "Cruel Words", a milestone in the musician's discography lasting more than fifty minutes.

Expect it in 2019, through RainWithoutEnd records, a sublabel of Naturmacht records (www.naturmacht.com).

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable... Jordan Vauvert

Life has gone on long enough
by NONE

supported by 55 fans who also own “Blackness in May (Promo EP)”

On ne frappe pas un homme à terre : c'est ce que dit la règle mais NONE a déjà prouvé qu'il ne les suivait pas et si son album éponyme retirait toute perspective de béatitude spirituelle, Life has gone on long enough, son deuxième opus, nous interdit l'accès au bonheur terrestre. La vie n'a aucune substance et la production plus distante le confirme. Le DSBM s'empare de textures sonores blues, mettant en relief une dépression urbaine. Les cris partent en fumées : ne restent que les pleurs... Jordan Vauvert

"La mort n'existe ni pour les vivants ni pour les morts" écrivait Épicure et ça reste toujours vrai : personne ne peut en faire l'expérience — sauf NONE, formation américaine qui en a fait son leitmotiv. Les membres du groupe sont inconnus et son premier album n'a pas de nom ; même le paysage sur la pochette est vaporeux. Si le DSBM est déjà d'une tristesse funèbre qui serre le cœur, les passages atmosphériques donnent à entendre les âmes en peine de l'autre côté du voile. Un début magistral... Jordan Vauvert
