The Illusion of Reach

by Déhà

supported by

David Fischer With The Illusion of Reach, Déhà crafted one of the best depressive black metal releases of 2023 I have heard. Not only are the tracks interwoven seamlessly, they're enriched with post-rock influences and transcend genre boundaries with ease. The 66 minutes fly by, and as soon as Mind Over Matter starts bombarding you with its soul-stirring onslaught, it will expel out any and all negative emotions and thoughts from your head like a radiant beacon. A cleansing descent into inner turmoil. Great! Favorite track: Mind Over Matter.

maite7000 Une perle cet album ! ❤️

bmurator Could not agree with MJ more, the description really is to the point. Anything by Déhà is stellar & this is no exception & is a stunning album! It is very tastefully done. Usually DSBM is much more about the "D" & the "S" - not so here. This is superb music that just happens to be depressive as well... :) Thank you so much for all your music Déhà! Highly recommended!!!

langshan_hexachord Not the Deha we deserve, but the Deha he gifts us. Favorite track: Anymore.

tuccmichael This record is amazing. I don't know how he continues to put out so much great music! Can't pick a favorite track. Listen & enjoy.

about

"The Illusion of Reach" is what we secretly want Déhà to do : high quality depressive (black) metal, with these post-rock influences making you unaware if you'll be digging more until you're in your grave, or being lifted higher that clouds in the sky.
For fans of his series "A Fleur de Peau" for sure, but also for those who understood the "oldschool" dsbm (Hypothermia, Trist) done just with the right amount of dirt and polished production, this +60 minutes of 'losing yourself' album is the perfect soundtrack for any kind of situation where you just need raw emotion, harsh soul meditation, and a way to open doors to exit your mental comfort zone, so you can think and overthink.

Damp Chill of Life
by NONE

supported by 46 fans who also own “The Illusion of Reach”

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 45 fans who also own “The Illusion of Reach”

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

Inevitable
by NONE

supported by 41 fans who also own “The Illusion of Reach”

《 So many questions 》 — "Rest", Inevitable. NONE. La mort est une épée de Damoclès : elle va tomber et on en a conscience ; on ignore quand et on la redoute. Tel est le thème d'Inevitable. Pour pousser ce concept jusqu'au bout, NONE fait en sorte que ce quatrième album soit à double tranchants. Sur le plan quantitatif, DSBM et dark ambiant sont sur un pied d'égalité : si le premier est toujours aussi dévastateur, le second n'est pas là pour apporter du réconfort. L'incertitude, l'angoisse... Jordan Vauvert
