#AmenRa @ Hellfest 2026

Comme l’a très justement crié quelqu’un dans le public à la 24e minute : « Merci les techniciens ! » de scène et de regie
Super qualité audio pour cet enregistrement live, en effet.

L'apport vocal de Amy (also ...Year of the Cobra) in Solitary Reign est juste parfait

Et merci à ARTE pour ce partage, ainsi que pour l’une des descriptions les plus saisissantes que j’aie jamais lues sur la musique et de l’attitude d’Amenra.

Amenra explore les tourments les plus profonds de l’âme humaine à travers des compositions post-doom aussi viscérales qu’hypnotiques. Petite séance d’introspection au Hellfest.

Pour susciter l’effroi, certains groupes misent sur le maquillage, la provocation ou les rugissements les plus gutturaux possibles. Et puis il y a Amenra. Loin des artifices et de toute mise en scène excessive, les Belges puisent dans une douleur intime et profondément sincère la matière première de leur musique. Les tempos s’étirent, les voix se font parfois fragiles, mais une menace sourde continue de planer au-dessus de ces compositions mêlant post-metal, doom et sludge.

Entre 2003 et 2017, la formation originaire de Kortrijk publie les six chapitres de la série Mass, autant de messes cathartiques où musique et souffrance ne font plus qu’un. Un cycle que le groupe met en pause en 2021 avec l’arrivée d’un nouveau chapitre discographique : De Doorn, leur septième album, paru chez Relapse Records.

Filmé le 20 juin 2026 au Hellfest Open Air Festival à Clisson, France.

https://www.europesays.com/uk/1035111/ Loneshore – Nothing Left to Deconstruct Review #2026 #30 #Amenra #BrazilianMetal #Entertainment #EternalStorm #ExplosionsInTheSky #Jun26 #Loneshore #music #NothingLeftToDeconstruct #Opeth #PostRock #PostMetal #ProgressiveMetal #Review #Reviews #TheOcean #UK #UnitedKingdom #WillowtipRecords

When one pictures Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, post-metal is probably not among the imagery that readily springs to mind. But the more I think about it, the more the birthplace of Loneshore makes sense. Just as post-metal is often defined by striking contrasts, so is Rio, a city where mountains and beaches coexist alongside favelas and wealthy communities. This diversity is mirrored in Loneshore’s sophomore record, Nothing Left to Deconstruct, which arrives nearly eight years after their 2018 debut, From Presence to Silence. How have the members of Loneshore matured as musicians during this time?

It turns out that Loneshore wasn’t always primarily a post-metal group. From Presence to Silence blended somber, doomy melodeath similar to Eternal Storm with Opethian melodies. Nothing Left to Deconstruct, however, squarely straddles the line between post-metal and Explosions in the Sky-esque post-rock, while adopting Amenra’s silvery-smooth buildups and releases. Loneshore retains some progressive metal, although this time it’s closer to The Ocean, especially during some of the clean-sung passages in “To Stride the Black Earth.” In fact, Luiz Felipe Netto’s clean and harsh vocal styles both cover a wide array of registers. Nothing Left to Deconstruct is no less lush from an instrumental perspective, making it an enjoyable listen from front to back.

Nothing Left to Deconstruct flows like a river, though don’t expect many whitewater rapids. Intro track “Self Oscillations” is like a gentle tributary, its dreamy vocal harmonies, mild guitar notes, and mesmerizing tom drum percussion rolling fluidly into “Straylight.” Loneshore makes good use of three guitarists and a bassist by overlapping their lines together sumptuously (“Parhelion,” “Of Lost Waters”). The 10-minute centerpiece “Birth of a Mountain” features a laid-back recurring melody that rises and falls like a sea of sand dunes. That said, there are sometimes surges of vehemence in the form of blackened snarls and forceful riffs (“Straylight,” “To Stride the Black Earth,” “Parhelion”). Because Loneshore doesn’t overly favor hooks or heaviness, Nothing Left to Deconstruct is a bit of a slow burn, requiring a few complete spins to sink in for me.

As relaxing as Nothing Left to Deconstruct is overall, most of its individual songs last longer than their contents can support. The majority hover around the 8-minute mark, and all of these have lengthy outros that don’t add much. “Of Lost Waters” begins with a pristine and serene post-rock tune, which is diminished by the minute-and-a-half meandering conclusion of “Birth of a Mountain” that came before. Likewise, concluding track “With Nothing We Part” is the most languid and least memorable despite a momentary injection of vitality at the halfway point. On the other hand, “To Stride the Black Earth” is the punchiest and has no noticeable fluff. While the total runtime sits at a fairly reasonable 52 minutes, there is a stronger 40 to 45-minute record lurking within.

It’s not uncommon for artists’ priorities to shift during a lengthy absence; in this case, Loneshore is the better for it. The post/prog metal hybrid Nothing Left to Deconstruct passes by like a pleasant ocean breeze in Rio de Janeiro. It took some time for me to fully appreciate it, but I’m glad I did. The main deficiencies holding back Nothing Left to Deconstruct are a lack of decisive conclusions and a bit of bloat. Nevertheless, if Loneshore continues to develop in this manner, I anticipate great things from album number three.

A nice bit of #PostMetal fusing #Amenra & #Heilung to do #tribal atmospheric #BlackMetal fusion that works so well.

Belgian alternative festival #RockHerk has just announced the first batch of artists for its upcoming edition, including three acts from our roster: #AMENRA, #SYLVIEKREUSCH and #HEISA.

Rock Herk takes place on the 17th and 18th of July. Amenra, Sylvie Kreusch and HEISA are all playing on the 17th!

And if I broke it once, I can break it twice: the title for #BestLivePerformance goes to #Amenra.
The fact that without any extensive physical activity I got soaking wet speaks of the atmosphere and the intensity. It was an exhaustive but deeply satisfying performance, one I can only recommend to experience firsthand.

I can break my own rules, can't I? Sure I can: this is technically an EP, not a "full" album.
#Amenra's otherwise excellent"With Fang and Claw" and "De Toorn" dual EPs have been immediately overshadowed by this release: it is emotionally crushing, humbling, scarring, captivating, and terrifying, but not as punishing as your "typical" post metal greats.
If there is a blacker black than vanta, it should be named Dimscûa.

#BellWitch will take a place of honour alongside #Amenra on this year's list of ( #metal ) favourites. My goodness, they really deliver when it comes to #epic #doom. I didn't think they would get me, but this album rocks incredibly! #music
