FOR FANS OF: GOAT, SLEEP, BONG, ISIS, PELICAN, MOGWAI, SUNN O))), GODSPEED YOU BLACK! EMPEROR, AMEN RA, BREACH Briqueville is a band shrouded in mystery.

On stage, they create an instrumental mantra of spooky guitars, modified field recordings and eery sampled chants.

These meditative build-ups, based on the perseverant element of repetition, are contrasted with and ripped apart by sudden, unforeseeable outbursts of the purest and sheerest heaviness.

The black Nazgûl-robes and golden masks that all Briqueville members wear on stage give theirpresence the air of an occult ritual...

but Briqueville are not chasing (a) GHOST; in fact they have worn their masks for 10 years plus, and even do so during rehearsals.

The anonymity creates equality, and prevents a cult of personality... and makes it easier to swap out band members without anyone noticing.

It wasn't until 2014 that BRIQUEVILLE released their self-titled debut album, four tracks that all conclude around the 10 minutes mark.

Upon release, the band buried 20 copies at various locations across the country, and gradually released the coordinates on their facebook page, animating fans to dig them up from the soil.

The idea was met with great enthusiasm among their quickly growing fanbase, and will be revisited and extended for the release of Briqueville's mesmerizing 2nd album, aptly titled ,II", which is to be released now!
