French doom rockers Akasava will make their full-length debut later this year with Nothing at Dawn on Nordavind Records. The LP will follow the band’s agenda-setting first EP, Strange Aeons, which was released last Spring and found Akasava belting out a raw and potent blend of doom and semi-psychedelic cult rock, wasting no time in proffering efficient songcraft and weighted tones. Sandwiched between the opening intro “Join the Ritual” and the outro “And Die!,” the short release offered a cohesive presentation and vision of where they might be headed.

Clearly Nordavind got the message, and will have the album out sometime in 2016. Announcement, bio, lineup info and EP audio follow here, courtesy of the PR wire:

French heavy psych coven AKASAVA sign with Nordavind Records

Nordavind Records is proud to announce the signing of the french heavy psych coven AKASAVA! The band’s debut full-length “Nothing At Dawn”, will be released later this year through the portuguese record label.

“We are really glad that Nordavind Records shown so much interest in us and are interested in releasing our debut album ‘Nothing At Dawn’.”, says Akasava’s frontman, Louis Hauguel. “Our dear worshippers can expect the same dark essence our EP was made of along with a lethal dose of heavy riffing and doomy landscapes. It is going to be exactly who we are: a meeting of lovecraftian madness, lost in dusty cold lands of solitude and melancholia, along with bursts of hope and rage coming straight from the abysses.”

Bio:
The band delivers heavy psych and doomy sounds inspired by the dark side of the 60’s and 70’s, lovecraftian madness, Jean Rollin and Jess Franco movies. We are unleashing the sounds from the depths made of heavy riffing, vicious bass lines, pounding drums and possessed vocals.

Akasava released their debut EP “Strange Aeons” in May, 2015. Featuring Karmazid’s mind blowing and tortured artwork, widely acclaimed among the doom/psych scene. Mystical, foggy, atmospheric landscapes will bring you close to the abyss of your mind and hit your soul straight after.

Wild and possessed on stage, they are about to record their debut album “Nothing At Dawn” and it will be released by Nordavind Records later in 2016, expect as well a lethal dose of unholy live rituals spreading among the country and beyond…!

Akasava is:
Louis Hauguel: Vocals, Lyrics
Arnold Lucas: Guitars, Organ
Amélie Gavalda: Bass Guitar
David Touroul: Drums
