Råtten is a tortured entity who writhes and self-harms in endless agony and countless cries of anguish. "Roi-de-Rats" is the first album of this French black metal trio, a torn debut with some doom and crust punk touches. Their album even brings some psychedelic and dissonant approaches that may remind us of Oranssi Pazuzu. This digipack CD is an invitation to voluntary confinement, an escape, a fast-track flight from any relationship with an exasperating humanity and a meaningless life. Raw French black for raw people.
