XCIII EP "Event Horizon"
<p>
Hello,</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Event Horizon is the new EP of the avant-garde Band XCIII. It was composed, mixed and mastered by the band itself in November 2013 and April 2014, at the Forlorn Hope studios in Lyon, France. It's a transition EP. We wanted to experiment new sounds, new genres. The result is a complex psychedelic journey composed by traditional black metal music and more. Still melancholic, the music finds its inspiration in both the essence of life and catatonia. It is a mix between cold eerie sounds and warm encouraging rhythms. The cover artwork, a simple white painted picture of trees, was made by Fanny R. Now, we wish to release the EP on Digipack ! </p>

<strong>French Metal (17,5/20)</strong></p>
<p>
Encore une fois, les arrangements et mélodies sont structurés juste comme il faut pour animer de manière voluptueuse et sensuelle les ambiances mystérieuses et mélancoliques au sein d'une mélodie envoûtante</p>

Il est en effet question d’expérimentation avec <em>Event Horizon</em>, de variations, bien que les racines black et mélodiques restent présentes. La mélancolie, voile à une noirceur plus profonde, sont néanmoins de mise. L’ensemble se décline de manière encore plus léchée que par le passé</p>
