The cover artwork of "Éclats" is based around the sculptures of Robert Le Lagadec (1927-2002).

Structures are still visible in the "Champs des divinités païennes" at Fontenay-les-Briis, near Paris, France.

Seven years has passed since the band's last opus, 2008's "Tourments & Perdition". Seven years that has allowed the band to build a very personal and audacious album, where black metal from the beginning merges with a more experimental and dissonant metal (Opeth, Enslaved, Leprous, Hail Spirit Noir!), and some prog rock influences, with french-only lyrics.
