More Info
Indigo Raven were formed in 2019 by creative French duo Julie Docteur and Benoît Sangoï. Following their critically acclaimed 2020 debut-EP, the band welcomed a third member to round up their line-up, bassist Jean Green (also in Mourir). The trio’s sound emerges from the Peaceville Three’s influence (My Dying Bride, Paradise Lost and Anathema) with some dreamy 1990’s shoegaze indie pop influences and a modern sludge approach. A simple but not unsophisticated instrumental foundation of the band, coloured by a shamanic sound and these occult, haunting female vocals by Julie, make ‘Looking For Transcendence’ a captivating yet dreamy, heavy and doomy as hell debut that will most likely see Indigo Raven stand out as one of Europe’s best up-and-coming ‘indie’ doom metal bands. For fans of Chelsea Wolfe, Windhand, My Bloody Valentine, Nothing, Marissa Nadler, My Dying Bride, Zola Jesus.
