Cinder

C H R I S T is a Montreal-based group founded by Patrick Fontaine (Ire, The Black Hand), Maxime Jenniss (Cobra Noir), Charles Marty (Sed Non Satiata) and Kevin Bartczak in 2013. C H R I S T is a far more restrained and contemplative endeavor than what would be assumed when looking at the band’s decidedly heavier pedigree. Music develops patiently, with sparsely thoughtful percussion and lush walls of harmonic textures painting dark landscapes that are at both filled with beauty and rife with tension.
