Nearly a decade in the making, France’s TENTATION emerge with their first full-length album, “Le Berceau Des Dieux”, a throwback to the glory days of 1980s metal – with vocals sung entirely in French!
The album will be released on September 24th 2021 via Gates Of Hell Records on CD, LP (strictly black vinyl), tape and in digital formats.
The first single, “Le Couvent”, can be checked out here:
Instruments for “Le Berceau Des Dieux” were tracked this past February and March at Record It Studios in Perpignan, France, with additional refinements taking place at the band’s own studio, L’art ou Cochon. The album was mixed and mastered at Moontower Studio in Barcelona, Spain by Javi Félez Rodriguez.
Translated as “The Cradle of the Gods”, “Le Berceau Des Dieux” delves deep into TENTATION’s interest in mythology and ancestral legends. Throughout the album’s running order, TENTATION balances Maiden-like gallops with high-wire guitar solos, pairing them with the fluid delivery of Rôhée. It is a combination like any other in the classic metal scene at the moment – sent to metalheads directly from the heart of the Occitanie region of France!
Guest Vocals on “Heavy Metal”: Patrice Le Calvez (Titan), Iron Jérémy (Iron Slaught) and Jey Deflagratör (Hexecutor).
