Bakeneko

A powerful new chapter in psychedelic post-metal. Bakeneko delivers atmospheric textures, hypnotic grooves and massive dynamic shifts. Dark, immersive and emotionally intense, this album marks a fearless evolution for the French trio.

Emerging from the vibrant Le Mans underground, the band have evolved from fuzzy stoner roots into a post-metal force, delivering their heaviest and most atmospheric material to date.

 Inspired by the Japanese myth of the shape-shifting Bakeneko spirit, the album unfolds across seven cinematic tracks full of dynamic shifts, tribal grooves and soaring ambient passages. The addition of a new drummer brings heightened rhythmic depth and intensity.

Bakeneko is both crushing and introspective, a journey through layered soundscapes that embrace psychedelia, doom and post rock with surgical precision.

For fans of Russian Circles, Pelican, ISIS, Glassing, Mastodon, My Sleeping Karma, Neurosis.
