As a leading name in the mystical French folk scene, STILLE VOLK makes a triumphant return after several years of silence, now signed with PROPHECY PRODS and presenting a brand new album. And what an album it is! What a comeback, my friends! The mystical essence that has always defined the band remains intact, but the music is further enriched by the unexpected yet magical addition of more "traditional" instruments: expertly played electro-acoustic guitars and drums enhance the sense of nostalgia and melancholy that permeates the album from start to finish. The inclusion of stunning choirs on catchy choruses, incredible meticulous production work, and a particularly immersive atmosphere truly make "Milharis" a pure gem from our homeland and a masterpiece in its own right! The vocals, often in French (surprisingly reminiscent at times of artists like BREL), only add to this enchanting forest-like ambiance. Occasionally evoking WOVENHAND (and one might even find themselves thinking of 16HORSEPOWER), this album is captivating and deserves your full attention! Bravo, everyone!
For fans of HEXVESSEL, WOVENHAND, EMPYRIUM.
