Départe New Album + Australian Tour
From the southern extremities of the world Departe were formed. Intent on creating dark, brooding atmospheric black metal with a focus on an intense, hypnotic live performance.
DÉPARTE stray from the more traditional black metal ethos, incorporating elements such as post metal, drone, doom and death metal. The combination of these ingredients result in something unique, emotive and truly powerful.
DÉPARTE released their first official demo ‘MMXIV’, which contained two tracks in November 2014. It speaks volume that the band was already invited to share stages with local heroes such as NE OBLIVISCARIS, PORTAL, and THE AMENTA as well as international heavy-weights from the calibre of GORGUTS, ULCERATE, WORMED, ABSU, and many more.
DÉPARTE have now recorded their debut full-length, which will be released on October 14.
DÉPARTE have announced Australian live dates in support of their debut full-length. Except for Brisbane and Perth, the underground shooting stars will be joined by special guests NO HAVEN.
Regarding the tour, DÉPARTE commented: “After more than a year since our last live performance, we are set to tour Australia this Spring in support of our debut album, ‘Failure, Subside’. The stage is where we feel the most at home, where we can truly express ourselves and create a deeply engaging, visceral experience for our audience. To say we are excited about this would be an understatement. Joining us across the country will be our good friends NO HAVEN, fresh off the release of their debut EP ‘Colours of Nothing’.”
