Parisian Progressive Doom Metal outfit Monolithe returns with \u0093Black Hole District\u0094, a tech noir styled story!<\/p>\n
Black Hole District is a story in a Tech-Noir style, inspired by Blade Runner, but also Dark City, Matrix, Ghost in The Shell, as well as \u0093hard boiled\u0094 literature. The narrator lives in a decaying city,in a dystopian future. The moon has left its orbit and is coming dangerously close to Earth, causing increasingly violent cataclysms (earthquakes, tsunamis, etc.). Humans now live at night because it is too hot during daytime. This narrator is disturbed by recurring dreams in which a woman with long black hair speaks to him. However, he doesn\u0092t remember who she is. He decides to investigate to find her. He ends up reaching a forbidden part of the city, called \u0093Black Hole District\u0094. He enters a building which is actually an android factory. He then realizes that the faces of the inert and aligned androids being manufactured, are all the same… And identical to his own. His break-in causes an alarm during which he, through the confusion, sees the woman of his dreams among the employees. He flees and tries to leave the city, pursued by a
\nmilitia charged with \u0093removing\u0094 him; Because androids that have become \u0093sentient\u0094 and can think for themselves are considered defective and dangerous. As he reaches the city limits, he gets fatally shot. Atthe same time, the city begins to disintegrate, due to the Moon\u0092s increasing proximity.<\/p>\n
Black Hole District is part of the band\u0092s evolutionary logic since their beginnings: progression in continuity. If Monolithe\u0092s musical style remains identifiable, new influences and musical desires enrich each new album. This is the case with BHD, which drew on the aesthetics of the 1970s and 1980s, especially in terms of synthesizers, in particular with the use of the famous CS-80 synth popularized by Vangelis, and the appeal of soundtracks of science fiction films. The album is also designed as a movie would be, with a scenario, an atmosphere, a central character whose train of thoughts is provided to the listener through narrations in a \u0093hard boiled\u0094 detective style. Eager to offer original music, Monolithe does not hesitate to break the rules of its primary genre, Doom Metal, while preserving its substantial marrow and roots.<\/p>\n
