"Litost" is a 2016 EP from French indie rockers Gévaudan. The release features a raw, energetic sound characteristic of the band's early work.
- The EP was self-released in November 2016. Gévaudan drew inspiration from the Czech word "litost," a complex emotion described as a state of torment or melancholy. The EP was recorded in a small home studio, giving it an intimate and lo-fi feel.
- The EP features four tracks that showcase the band's driving guitar riffs and introspective lyrics. Gévaudan's sound on "Litost" positions them within the broader French indie scene of the mid-2010s. The release did not chart, as is common for self-released EPs from independent artists.
- This release came out between their debut album and a subsequent, more polished LP. Gévaudan has cited influences ranging from Joy Division to more contemporary acts like Interpol. The band continues to tour extensively in Europe.
Gévaudan is an alternative rock band from France. They are known for their blend of indie rock and post-punk influences.
