Le temps du loup - Leteo (2023)


It is already the third album from the Spanish post-rock outfit of Le temps du loup. The band are known for creating heavy music that still exists within the realms of post-rock and it now sounds better than ever.

The album's theme "revolves around ideas of choice and consequence as they relate to death and afterlife" as the album's title refers to the Greek mythology and the river the water of which made people forget about their past lives. And fittingly to the topic of death, the post-rock music here feels particularly dark. The composition are rich and ever-changing but they still feel heavy and overwhelming in some fragments, as if they were meant to show how heavy the topic is. Those moments of complete surrender to the heaviness of the guitar sounds are what I'm here for. This sound feels so tangible, as if it was a physical item you have to deal with. This rough quality reaches its peak in the impressive finish of The Bride of Belus. But the musicians don't forget that a music like this needs some space to have a proper build-up to make the overwhelming effect work as intended and it's very important.
