On January 28th, French avantgarde black metallers CELESTE will unleash their new longplayer "Assassine(s)", produced by Chris Edrich (GOJIRA, TESSERACT, THE OCEAN, LEPROUS). With their unique mix of black metal, sludge and post hardcore, and over 500 shows played since their inception in 2005, CELESTE have cemented their status as one of France's most important underground acts and now unveil a new single off their upcoming album soon to be released via their new label Nuclear Blast.
Through punishing palm mute riffing, CELESTE explores modern metal sonorities. Mixing raw brutality with a unique sense of melancholia, the French cross new boundaries on 'De Tes Yeux Bleus Perlés'.
More metal and filthier, the quartet surprises with an immense downtuned breakdown that sucks you right down into their abyss. Watch the haunting new music video, directed by Grégory Hoeppfner, here: https://youtu.be/3Gz9o8lrmtI
