WHERE MERMAIDS DROWN
Cinematic post-rock / Lyon, FR
Where Mermaids Drown performs “Rio Plata” and “Statues Learn to Weep”, two tracks from their album Reminisce released on April 7, 2023.
Tracklist:
1. Rio Plata
2. Statues Learn to Weep
With And The Raging Wind Do Blow (2020), where mermaids drown has quietly made their nest in the family tree of French post-rock. Noticed at the opening of the prestigious Dunk! Festival in Belgium, the quartet from Lyon is about to cross the threshold of their debut album with honors. Reminisce stands at the collision point between saturated and cinematic music, in the wake of illustrious peers like Bruit≤ or Lost In Kiev.
where mermaids drown has certainly found their sound on this first full-length. Six instrumental pieces that present beautiful confrontations of haunting melodies and ethereal atmospheres. Thanks to striking crescendos, these evolve towards the purest vigour, allowing the riffs to bravely take the floor! More than dreamlike, this clever mix borders on a fully assumed romanticism.
