Assassine(s)
There’s a menacing red-shimmering light at the end of the dark journey that CELESTE started last year, since signing to metal heavyweight Nuclear Blast and announcing their new masterpiece. Today, the band unleashes their new long-player “Assassine(s)”, produced by Chris Edrich (GOJIRA, TESSERACT, THE OCEAN, LEPROUS).
With their unique mix of black metal, sludge, and post-hardcore, and over 500 shows played since their inception in 2005, CELESTE has cemented their status as one of France’s most important underground acts and now unveil a new single off their upcoming album, released today!
The band states:
“After these recent years full of struggles, it is with immense joy that we unleash our 6th album in its entirety.
Recording Assassine(s) was a long journey, during which we’ve all had our hearts working to full capacity. We hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we do.”

Together with their new album, CELESTE reveals a video for the song “Elle répète froidement”, once again a cinematic masterpiece that you can check out here:
The band stated regarding this hypnotizing track:
“These sparkling drums introduce us to a song which perfectly depicts how forward-thinking and more accessible this new effort is. Modern riffing, almost pop-like lead guitars and structures embrace voluptuous melodies. This song is a praise of despair and melancholia, four magnificent minutes of pure spleen.”
The album is available as:

- Black
- Transparent Vinyl with Black Yolk and Gold Splatter
