2 years after the release of their very well-received debut album »Envoûtante Sève«, Swiss narrative post-doom collective Kalkas will give birth to a new EP called »Ciel en feu«, planned as digital exclusive on May 31st through Table Basse Records.

In the meantime, the band just unveiled a first glimpse from this forthcoming record with the official music video illustrating its title-track, available right now on YouTube.

…For the record…

Beyond its musical dimension, Kalkas develops a conceptual universe around issues related to climate change and the anger this causes among the various members of the band.

In a romantic and dualistic approach, with some points of naturalistic contemplation, this album offers a first dive into the subdued atmosphere of a dark autumnal and forest mist. To a sound saturated with existential angst, the instruments respond to the call of Kalkas, a deep entity with a vague design for our humanities.

Punctuated with narrative and poetic vocal passages, the album »Envoûtante Sève« offers a first vision of this new world, under construction.
