After a 2017 debut, Princesse Terre (Three Studies Of Silence And Death), French experimental black metal bringers Nyss are back with their sophomore album, entitled Dépayser. It was recorded over a two year period by Þórir Nyss (all instruments), Lee Bullock (vocals) and new entry François Boyenval (cello). Nyss made Dépayser available for streaming in its entirety, so you can already check out and listen to the new stuff down under.

New studio album was written as a lens that refracts a wide set of musical cultures - Black Metal, Jazz, Post-Punk and the raw despair of Power Electronics. Created largely from improvisations, feeling and experimenting were crucial along the whole creative and recording process, and the trio intentionally moved away from the typical themes, art and culture of the genre.




Þórir Nyss comments on album: "From a lyrical perspective Dépayser explores a dismal, alienating world, filled with the venal and banal. There is the internalisation of loneliness, grief and disconnection but also a transcending acceptance of an absurd and meaningless world. The words explore the dingy underbelly of an airbrushed world: the futile attempts at connection with people who would sell your ass for just another drink. Broken bottles and gouged eyes, vomiting blood into the gutter - The pride misplaced in your piss-soaked, forgotten town."
