Violet Cold et l'originalité, ce sont deux entités indissociables. Anomie — le nom est si bien choisi ! — bouscule les codes. Il bouscule les codes du black metal : d'une tragique mélancolie, certes, mais une ouverture poétique grâce aux instruments traditionnels ("Anomie" et "Violet Girl"). Mais il bouscule aussi les codes sociaux : les femmes sont à l'honneur. Si Violet Cold est au chant, ce sont les femmes qui assurent la narration et donc la structure de l'album. Le résultat est touchant. Jordan Vauvert
I've listened to this so many times while working and gaming that, as a person who doesn't actually buy that much music, I did buy it. Unique band honestly that captures the atmospheric loneliness and grandeur of space exceptionally well. deruz0r
