French epic/medieval black metallers Aorlhac have made available for streaming in its entirety their new album, L'Esprit des Vents, which was released on 2nd March via Les Acteurs de L’Ombre Productions. Aorlhac is looking back to the past, to their occitan roots, either medieval and modern, narrating the history of the south of France and north of Italy and Spain. Occitan is not only a language but also a culture recounted in French by the band: they are respectful witnesses of their ancestors' heritage.
L'Esprit des Vents ends the trilogy started by Arolhac in 2008, just one year after its creation; a trilogy started with À la croisée des Vents, then followed by La Cité des Vents. This band from Auvergne breaks an eight years silence from their split album with Darkenhöld, Ossuaire and Ysengrin. Far from the brief and resplendent heroism of a basic charge, this third chapter represents more a hard-bitten warrior drove by an ancient knowledge, often earn through blood. A veteran, strengthen by many campaigns, that narrates us, sometimes using the Occitan language, tales of bravery and death inspired by the History and legends born in the native region of the musicians. A enchanted legacy sang with a chivalrous rage guided by drums, beating to rhythm of battles from the past, along with riffs decorated by devastations and melancholia.
