“Au cours des cinq titres de Mare Dencendrii, Mamiffer voyage entre moments d’adoration minimaliste, méditations chorales, marches funèbres syncopées, passages classiques et doom metal déconstruit. À la base, c’est une exploration mélancolique et parfois vindicative de la texture et de la mélodie. C’est un audacieux voyage sonore.” Pour cet enregistrement, Faith Coloccia: piano, voix, synthetiseur, piano préparé, orgue, percussion et échantillons. Aaron Turner: guitare, voix, effets.
