Les Oiseaux Mort by Les Sofilanthropes is a captivating and deeply moving album that showcases the band's unique blend of post-rock, shoegaze, and ambient music. The album's title, which translates to "dead birds," sets the tone for the haunting and melancholic atmosphere that pervades throughout the tracks.
The opening track, "Memento Mori," is a slow-burning instrumental piece that gradually builds in intensity, with layers of distorted guitars and ethereal synths creating a sense of unease and tension. "Les Oiseaux Mort" follows, featuring delicate piano melodies and whispered vocals that convey a sense of fragility and sadness.
Other standout tracks include "Les Yeux Fermés," which features a hypnotic drumbeat and soaring guitar riffs, and "L'éclipse," a dreamy and introspective piece that showcases the band's talent for creating immersive soundscapes.
