French doom metal trio Indigo Raven share a music video for the third single »Where Lies Our Heart« taken from their debut full-length album, »Looking For Transcendence«, set to release on October 22nd, 2021 via Argonauta Records.
Directed and edited by Estelle Vernay.
The band comments: “Today is the day of the autumn equinox, Mabon. It is also the day when, 20 years ago, the AZF chemical factory exploded in Toulouse, the city we live in, here in France.
This is the day we chose to release our second title from the upcoming album »Looking For Transcendence«, which will be released on October 22nd on Argonauta Records.
We’re a doom band, but this song isn’t. Please give ear to this one, talking about our place as human beings. We wanted to share to you a raw and bare honesty here.
This special date reminds us of both the natural world we live in and its cycles, and of human belligerence and destructive power.
We worked with our friend and artist Estelle Vernay on this video clip.”

Formed in 2019 by creative duo Julie Docteur and Benoît Sangoï, and following their critically acclaimed 2020- debut EP, Indigo Raven welcomed a third band member to round up their line-up, bassist Jean Green (also in Mourir). The trio’s sound emerges from the Peaceville Three’s influence with a modern sludge approach. A simple but not unsophisticated instrumental foundation of the band, coloured by a shamanic sound and these occult, haunting vocals, make »Looking For Transcendence« a captivating yet heavy as hell debut, that will most likely see Indigo Raven stand out as one of Europe’s underground best and up- and coming bands.
“After receiving more than stimulating feedbacks for our first EP and the arrival of our third raven, Jean, we were pushed to go deeper. Doing so, we’re very happy to introduce our first album: »Looking For Transcendence«.” vocalist and visual creative behind the band, Julie, comments.
“We imprinted it with a form of dull & poetic rage, assumed vulnerability and eager for some serious split-screen. The music stays refined but got more powerful and heavy, leaving space for the vocals to emotionally chant strong lyrics. We hope it will inspire you to inner journeys.”
Indigo Raven’s debut album »Looking For Transcendence« will be released on October 22, 2021 through Argonauta Records.
