Ashen : Chimera - CD
Ref: 24731
Chimera is the sound of a Self splitting in two! Emerging from the Parisian underground, modern metalcore unit Ashen redefines the heavy music genre. On their debut record Chimera, they don't just introduce themselves as a band, but fracture open a whole universe, one stitched together from anguish, ecstasy, delusion and clarity. This album is everything but predictable - It's metalcore through a kaleidoscope: cinematic, unstable, beautifully unwell. Chimera is a brutal yet beautiful descent into buried emotion, and a search for something real beneath the noise - a slow transformation, like watching your own reflection shift into something unrecognizable, something truer. Never losing its soul, the production leans into modern maximalism; every glitch, every drop, every wall-of-sound moment feels intentional. You can hear the fingerprints of a band obsessed with detail, not just sonically. Lyrically, Chimera is a study in becoming: of what happens when you're forced to confront the distorted version of yourself that pain builds over time. By the time the final track ends, you're not the same. So lose yourself and maybe find something real on the other side.
