Lantlôs
Lantlôs sign with Prophecy Productions
Lantlôs, the main sphere of activity of a young visionary called Herbst, stirred up the post-black metal scene with their self-titled debut album back in 2008. Now, reinforced by singer Neige (Alcest, Amesoeurs), Lantlôs have finally found their way to Prophecy.
Herbst has this to say about the signing of the contract: "For years, it has been my wish for Lantlôs to find a home with Prophecy. It is just amazing that it worked out now. I am now on a label alongside bands such as Tenhi, Silencer, Bethlehem, and Secrets Of The Moon, and that gives me great pleasure."
The label, too, is very happy to have another musically and concept-wise extraordinary artist with a clear-cut artistic vision on their roster. The band's sounds, words, and images are committed to reflect reality, its perception, and its relations to the self, painting a grey, confusing, and surreal vision of escapism and the search for support. Lantlôs' second album, '.neon' (scheduled for release via Prophecy in the near future), builds on that motive and gives you a dire and hopeless portrayal of these conditions.
