De Platon à Dodecahedron : les apports des textures ligétiennes et de la musique électronique chez un groupe de Metal extrême

In this reflection, we will develop the idea that Extreme Metal, in search of the renewal of its somewhat stagnant language since the end of the 2000s, tries to appropriate, or at least adapt to its discourse, some of contemporary art music’s codes. As part of this hypothesis, we propose to illustrate, with examples chosen from the repertoire of the band Dodecahedron, the wide variety of processes implemented in a recent album (2017). This article will discuss the merger between Plato's solids, textures borrowed from composer György Ligeti, and electronic music.
