Shelter - Profondeur 4000

Review by Jamie Rule Tredway

Shelter's album Profondeur 4000 is an impressive display of their musical prowess. The album features a diverse range of sounds, from ambient instrumentals to heavy guitar riffs, all tied together by the band's signature post-hardcore style.

The opening track "Sous la surface" sets the tone for the album, with its haunting melody and brooding lyrics. "Fissures" showcases the band's ability to build tension with intricate guitar work and pounding drums, while "Le gouffre" is a standout track with its catchy chorus and driving rhythm.

Throughout the album, Shelter's lyrics explore themes of isolation, loss, and the human condition, adding depth and emotional weight to the already powerful music. The band's musicianship is also on display, with each member contributing to the intricate arrangements and dynamic shifts in the music.
