Le groupe doom death atmosphérique chilien de Mar de Grises vient d'annoncer la fin de ses opérations musicales dans un communiqué sur leur Facebook officiel. L'excellent Stream Inwards paru en 2010 restera donc leur ultime opus.
Une triste nouvelle pour les fans du genre, en allant de My Dying Bride à Angellore en passant par Swallow the Sun. C'est d'ailleurs en première partie de ces derniers que nous les avons vus avec La Grosse Radio Metal lors d'un concert à Paris.
Voici le détail cette annonce :
"Dear friends and fans,
It is with deep emotion that we must announce that Mar de Grises has come to an ending.
Several reasons have led us to make this decision. Our spirits have changed and we collectively chose to end this beautiful cycle. Our musical paths have parted. You will know about our new projects soon.
Being part of this project during all these years has been amazing and magical, and sharing our feelings through music with great friends for so long has filled us with joy and satisfaction.
Mar de Grises allowed us to reach places we never thought we would; to share stage with people we admire and, above all, with good friends; to contribute to the musical history of Chile, and to reach the hearts of fans all over the world.
We feel more than rewarded with all your love and feedback.
We would like to give our sincere thanks to all our technical staff, friends and families, past members of the band, labels, promoters, media, agencies, and to all those who believed and were sincerely involved in all our undertakings.
Above all, we wish to thank all our fans who have given us unconditional support during these 13 years.
To give this story the end it deserves, we are working on the details of a final show which will be announced soon.
Now the Jewel of the Andes, as we were once called, will rest in our hearts and will continue to live in you and your memories.
Farewell."
