In 1997, Laurent Perrier puts an end to the Nox experience, one of the major bands of the French industrial rock scene, to launch a new solo project, CapeFear, with which he delivers a first album (Drift towards the heat) combining breakbeat, sampling and metal guitars .
Twelve years later, CapeFear is back with a second album, Winds of the dead air. Five long titles, dark and strangely hypnotic, where guitars and metal riffs literally crash on a groovy bass/drum rythmic line. The sequencers and the unique sound of the Moog synthesizer give to this record some kind of a ambient 70's flavor while the quality and intensity of the compositions will remind the listener of Chrome, King Crimson, Neurosis and This Heat.
