The next album by BOISSON DIVINE

BOISSON DIVINE are working hard on their second album entitled "Volentat" ("Will" in English). Music is recorded, half of the vocals too.

The new album will be much longer than their debut CD with its 45 minutes length which includes four songs that overpassed 5 minutes while the length of the ending track is near 10 minutes.

The band said to Sword Chant :
We took the time to develop our melodies and ambiences. There's a great instrument diversity. We can hear our lovely "boha" of course but we added whistle, mandolin, accordion, hurdy-gurdy, great Highland bagpipes, trumpet and euphonium. We have kept the essence of our sound : catchiness, energy, power and melody but there's some new elements. We can hear a military-close introduction, a waltz, a disco-close rythm, some extend acoustic guitar parts and even an oriental influence. 
The lyrics won't be French but Gascon, and includes many choirs. They deal with the King of a traditional carnaval from béarn, boatmen of the atlantic coast, the lady of Brassempouy (the older human representation known), a deviant churchman, Armagnac (the oldest world brandy known), a famous mushroom called "cèpe", spiritual elevation, and historical facts about an old popular rising against a salt tax and a great battle called "martyr's causeway".

Pyrenean choir will feat. as guest on the record.
