Free Metals: Eos - L'Avalé

From what I can gather, Eos is a duo out of Quebec, and that's about all I know. L'Avalé, on the other hand, is much easier to discuss, serving up 33 minutes of raw and atmospheric black metal over the course of its three tracks.

L'Avalé's most multifarious moments reveal themselves rather seamlessly as the fifteen minutes of opening track "Dystopie" play out.
There's a death metal vibe for the first third of the song, which then briefly changes to Pink Floyd and then finally moves to black metal with some atmospheric bits along the way.

"Katharsis," by far the shortest track on L'Avalé, is a full-on black metal assault. It is without a doubt an absolute highlight of the record.

Third and final track "Avalé" paces itself by slowing down every few minutes until finally working itself into a frenzy before ultimately winding down.

These three tracks are hopefully just the beginning for Eos. L'Avalé is available from the Fallen Empire Records bandcamp page and can be downloaded for the "Name Your Price" option here.
