LES BÂTARDS DU ROI unveil the artwork for *"Les Chemins de l'Exil"*, the band's second album, set to be released on October 10th via Les Acteurs de l’Ombre Productions !
Formed in Orleans in 2022, Les Bâtards du Roi is a melodic black metal band evolving in a medieval framework. Set in a devastated world, this project tells the story of the brothers who committed regicide, the act that plunged the kingdom into decay and torment. From this initial situation, the protagonists embark on a spiritual journey of self-examination in a tortured landscape. This is the story of the beginning of their exile.
With this new album, Les Bâtards du Roi deliver a work as ambitious as it is heart-wrenching, woven with contrasts and tension. Between raw violence and symphonic flights, this record is an exile: a journey through darkness, solitude, and the outer limits of the soul.
At the crossroads of the spiritual and the carnal, between shadow and light, this new album is an offering: raw, mystical, timeless.
Here, Les Bâtards du Roi assert a powerful identity—where medieval breath meets the modern chaos, and where every note echoes like one more step into the unknown.
