Däëmötïön ëntör

(Öxxö Xööx is a French Avant Garde/Doom band formed by Gautier Serre, Laure Le Prunenec, Laurent Lunoir and Thomas Jacquelin; the band features Öxxö Xööx (Igorrr/ WHOURKR) on full songwriting duties and the operatic treasure (Rïcïnn/Corpo-Mente/Igorrr) on guest vocals, also utilizes synth guitar processing by cybermetal mastermind MASTER BOOT RECORD.

Expanding the thematic foci of the band, their self-created language peels back layers surrounding the nature of reality while trying to comprehend the truth of an ambiguous and ominous “cube.” The album opens with a solemn funeral dirge – for a character, for mankind, or perhaps for sanity. Oozing with beauty and melancholic doom, the album gives way to bell-like organs before drums build to an assault. The record shifts rapidly from haunting laments to utter desperation and unhinged mania as the 78-minute journey spirals deeper and deeper into the maze of enigma).
