The Artist: Trancept - "Static Sun"

Trancept is a French band crafting mystical shoegaze music, and an atmospheric & spiritual reconciliation with post-punk revival & meditative/hypnotic rock.
The project started some years ago, resulting in the release of "Radiance" in 2019, an intimate LP lying on atmospheric & nu-gaze horizons.
Graphic identity is mainly handled by Jeff Grimal (The Great Old Ones), Laurent Fétis (M83, Tristesse Contemporaine, Dodi El Sherbini) & Reuben Sawyer (Chelsea Wolfe, Some Ember). Concerning its sound identity, Trancept works with Sicarius Productions (Glaciation, Deathcode Society) & Studio Soyuz in Paris.

Timeless between dream and reality, where post-punk meets shoegaze you will find Trancept,  awesome indie pop with catchy melodies.
