Euphrate

Power Metal God Outstanding vocals (in french!), distinctive avant/prog songwriting, the choir, the powerchords ending, this song is just too full of “wow!”-effect. Thot is on such a level of harmony that it becomes physical. I hope it will be released on vinyl! Looking forward for full EP!

Alberto Gustaffson Good to see a band that knows what it's doing. While being certain about their inspiration, Euphrate is able to create an intriguing, wholesome song, that's interesting to follow and makes you eager to hear the upcoming album

Сats and Metal Media Like all the best things in life, Thot happened to me accidentally. Wandering through Bandcamp I was looking for something more shapeless and confident - and I found it. The bulldozing keyboards in the intro of the song quickly set me up for some Skinny Puppy and overall synthetic feel, but Euphrate spreads on far more vast territories. Combining the sounds of absolutely different worlds, on the newest release. Thot is primed to start the genesis of something truly new

lyrics

Mon temps est une plainte qui
Se faufile parmis les doutes
Je sonde ces notes envers et contre moi
Ce rythme est une fuite qui
M’emmène au loin la-bas
Je me languis d’échos de mes premiers pas
La pudeur
M’a fait peur

La pudeur cette connerie
Ces âmes qui ne l’ont pas
Elles bottent le cul d’une armée de cinglés
Oui c’est bien loin de toi
Ce courage qui nous résiste
Noyés dans tes putains de larmes lamentables

Nothing’s gonna refrain me
Nothing’s gonna refrain me

Tant de choses me retiennent
Des racines aériennes
Toutes ces notes ont-elles une chance de me secouer
Je me tourne vers le ciel
Profane tes souvenirs
Je crache ma colère sur tes lois erronées

Mon temps est une plainte qui
Se faufile parmis les doutes
Sonder chaque notes envers et contre moi
Ce rythme est une fuite qui
Rien ne nous arrêtera

Nothing’s gonna refrain me
I'm fighting for your soul

After an audacious cover of Pink Floyd's "What Shall We Do Now?" in 2021, the collective entered 2022 with "Méandres", an Ep in which the French language finds its place within 3 new unleashed tracks, including a collaboration with female singers of the polyphonic choir "Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares". ... more
