It is with great pleasure that I am writing again about Cepheide, a Parisian band whose first demo De silence et de suie I have already reviewed some time ago. In that review I pointed out that the genre of this band can be defined as atmospheric depressive black metal and that the band had some concreteness deriving from short songs and limited use of synths and acoustic guitars.
 
With the new EP Respire, the situation has completely changed. The EP consists of only two songs, but either of them lasts nearly twenty minutes. In addition, the band has definitely stepped up the use of synths. As a result, the depressive feeling has been accentuated, being it is fraught with intensity and deep dramatic force. The band, however, remains bound up with its atmospheric origin; I would say that the atmosphere created by the keyboards is sometimes almost psychedelic.
 
The lineup also has undergone a change: from an initial trio on the demo, the band has now been reduced to a duo. What is certain is that this EP is a must-have masterpiece, listen below!
 
Notes:
Respire was independently released on July 14 2015.
 
Personnel:
