It remains to be seen what the newly reformed Americans have in store for the future.

French-speaking black metal group, Griffon continues its journey and prepares the ground for the release of Da Republica, its next studio album, scheduled for February 16.

Inspired by films such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, Matrix, Sunshine, Solaris and 1984, this album revolves around a reflection on the relationship between human beings and machines.
