D.I.Y. as all hell, two-piece UN AUTOMNE DE PLUS have been releasing their own music since 2010 and are headed over to the US next week for a few shows. The band first caught my attention in 2015 when they sent me some copies of their newest record 'Qu'Adviendra-t-il de nos souvenirs?' which really struck a chord with me. The band concocts massive movements into beautifully orchestrated soft/heavy moments with climactic and epic results. With the older material the band focuses much more on atmospherics and generally "rock out" to but a fraction of the song with the reminder being held by ambient instrumentals and audio clips.

It seems to make the most sense for me to quickly discuss my favourite songs from 'Qu'Adviendra-t-il de nos souvenirs?' as it is my favourite of the lot and the one I've jammed the most. "Presque Mort" begins much like Aporia and later Aussitôt Mort with spacey post-hardcore and yelling before slowing down to a crawl at 1:15. This four-minute closing section is a beautiful atmospheric haze that eventually incorporates more instrumentation and screaming as well as an audio clip of panicked 911 phone calls and a heart rate monitor. "Explosions" is a six minute plus affair of purely ambient instrumental post-rock/post-hardcore in the vein of Mogwai, Godspeed, You! Black Emperor and Explosions In The Sky. "Que Nous reste-t-il?" is another banger that begins with that amazing French plucking that so many of the "for fans of" bands are well known for, with insertions of full out post-hardcore with some screamo leanings, not unlike Gantz and Amanda Woodward.

As stated earlier, UN AUTOMNE DE PLUS is going on tour from April 17th-24th in New York and Pennsylvania. Check the show poster below for details.
