Drawing from a plethora of musical vocabularies to deliver an eerie and disturbing climate, Escarre could be considered as an avant-garde metal band. Very personal themes adresse the concepts of disease, drugs and spiritual visions. Ranging from calm moments to harsh ambiances, the intention is to initiate a mystical musical pilgrimage, through a misty and convoluted landscape. Experimentation and the refusal of dogmas are the cornerstones of our approach. Drawing influences from artists such as Ved Buens Ende, 8 bit music and Radiohead, Escarre displays a destabilizing and cathartic portrait.
