WuW - L'Orchaostre (2023)

Inspired by "classical music, free jazz and drone", WuW is a French duo made up of two brothers Colins who together create an exceptionally interesting take on heavy post-rock/post-metal music. The new instance of their work is their third album called L'orchestre.

This is an orchestra that is based on heavy and crunchy sounds of guitars. The list of the band's inspirations include Year of No Light, Dirge and Omega Massif and it's no surprise as this slow at first, but gradually faster and faster music is headed towards very guitar-oriented self-expression. It's tad heavier than post-rock and way more similar to stoner metal than rock music, but it lacks any kind of post-metal vocals so I'd put it on the very border of the genres. No matter the genre, this is this kind of music that is meant to overwhelm the audience with the sheer weight of the sound: the slower, stoner riffs and the pretty minimalist vibes of this music can be felt in every inch of your body.
