Additional notes:
CELESTE plays a mix of Sludge / Post-hardcore with Black Metal and Doom hints. Definitely for fans of Breach, Neurosis, old Cult of Luna or Deathspell Omega. Darkness is really the word that fits to the band. They are a very particular band live as they play in total darkness, only using red headlights and a strobe for their performances. They did almost 200 shows all over Europe, Russia and Japan with bands such as The Ocean, The Locust, Jarboe, Esoteric, Enablers, Fall of Effrafa, Comadre, Graf Orlock, Zann, Trainwreck, Amenra....
Not to be confused with: Celeste (FI) - Dark/Black Metal from Tampere, Finland
