Year Of No Light - Demo 2004

Review by Anna Redman

The album Demo 2004 by Year Of No Light is a powerful display of the band's raw talent and musical prowess. The French metal outfit's debut release features a blend of atmospheric post-metal and sludge, creating an intense and immersive listening experience.

The album opens with the haunting track "Thanatos," which sets the tone for the rest of the record with its slow, brooding guitar riffs and eerie vocals. From there, the band launches into a series of heavy, crushing tracks like "Persephone" and "L'Angoisse Du Veilleur De Nuit D'Autoroute Les Soirs D'Alarme À Accident."

Throughout the album, Year Of No Light showcases their ability to craft complex, dynamic compositions that are both aggressive and introspective. Their use of layered guitars, atmospheric keyboards, and intricate drumming creates a dense, textured sound that draws the listener in and refuses to let go.
