French doom/deathers Ataraxie have revealed another song from their upcoming fifth album »Le Déclin«, set for release on October 25th, 2024 via Ardua Music & Weird Truth Productions on CD, double LP, tape and digitally. You can listen to the track »The Collapse« HERE!

The band comments: “»The Collapse« is the final song of our new album. You’ll find inside all main Ataraxie ingredients, ie a real head banging death metal chorus, furious blast bleats, gloomy clean guitar and funeral doom parts to tie the rope around your neck. So it should appeal to all people supporting us since our early beginning.”

“Lyrics deal with the true loneliness of each human being in these troubled times led by fools and populists. Emotions keep on guiding the masses towards a frustrating life free of legacy. Too many people are trapped into virtual worlds where they bring face to face the worst absurdities and pretend to be spokesmen of new schools of thoughts. As only popularity matters at the end, scientific consensus is now regularly questioned or mocked. (Un)fortunately people turn themselves into Australopithecus minded ones that an old eradicated disease can kill.”

Born in the fall of 2000 in Rouen (France), Ataraxie take their main inspiration from the early 90s doom/death metal scene and slowest 80s/90s death metal bands. Thus, their genre mainly includes old school death metal parts and classic doom metal ones slowed down in the most extreme way but also various influences from the bleakest metal genres. Their music plays a lot with contrasts in general: ultra slow crushing parts alternate with furious blast beats, mournful parts with more epic ones, and vocals also varies from really deep grunts to tormented screams. Topped by a triple (!) guitar attack, Ataraxie is a must for fans of Disembowelment, Evoken, early My Dying Bride, Morgion, Cathedral, Esoteric, Asunder, Mournful Congregation, Spectral Voice or Incantation.

Their new album »Le Déclin« pushes the themes that were already present on its predecessor »Résignés« with a focus on subjects like manipulation and obfuscation of the masses, the cult of selfishness, dehumanization towards a parasiting virtual life, global warming insolubility, and reflects the unique musical style of Ataraxie.
