{"title":"Alcest","description":"Alcest - Music from another world.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAlcest was founded in the year 2000 by songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Neige (aka. Stéphane Paut) and later joined by drummer Winterhalter (Jean Deflandre) in 2009. Labeled as post metal\/shoegaze or \"blackgaze\", Alcest were the pioneers within this genre, crafting a unique sound based on musical opposites from their very first EP \"Le Secret\" (2005), and thru their full length releases \"Souvenirs D'Un Autre Monde\" (2007), \"Écailles De Lune\" (2010) and \"Les Voyages De L'Ame\" (2012). In 2014 their fourth album \"Shelter\" was released, marking the band's departure from the more metal sound, in favor of dream-pop aesthetics, surprising and somewhat challenging their fan base. In retrospective, the album opened new doors for Alcest, bringing them an audience from different horizons and a positive sense of unpredictability as musicians.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOver the years, Alcest influenced a lot of other artists and gained a significant popularity around the world, leading them to do several tours all over Europe, North America, South America, Asia and Australia.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Kodama\" (2016), the upcoming fifth album by Alcest marks the French duo's ferocious return to the epic and contrasted style of its early works while continuing the band's relentless pursuit for fresh ideas. Combining poetic elements with darker ones, that were not present in Alcest's earlier works, \"Kodama\" manifests as an intense album, featuring a more organic, punchy sound and showcasing impulses from an array of different places.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOriginally triggered by Hayao Miyazaki's anime film \"Princess Mononoke\", \"Kodama\" picks up on the fate of its protagonist and, at its core, deals with the sensation of not belonging; of living in between worlds, be it city and nature, the physical and spiritual one. By giving the album a cultural, stylistic and compositional narrative, Neige and Winterhalter keep \"Kodama\" from just being the latest improvement on the Alcest sound and instead make the album a most rare and exciting thing: a vital, relevant record from a front runner that not only upholds the band's trailblazing legacy, but actually makes you want to see where they go next.","products":[{"product_id":"alcest-ecailles-de-lune","title":"Alcest - Écailles De Lune (CD)","description":"ALCEST took an audible step towards their black metal roots with their sophomore full-length “Écailles de Lune” (\"Moon Scales\") without losing any of the trademarks that had evolved on their debut album “Souvenirs d’un Autre Monde”. The French post-black metal pioneers created a sound of lucent, dreamlike quality and otherworldly beauty that has equally defined them and been refined by them ever since.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn musical terms, ALCEST amalgamate calm, semi-acoustic passages, repetitive, hypnotic patterns, and captivating melodies with outbursts of harsh riffing and aggressive drumming. The same contrasting and complementing effect is used by band founder and guitarist Neige for his vocals. Clean singing that is morphing back and forth between a warm and darker tone and a gentle higher pitch occasionally gets swept aside by despairing shrieks and furious black voices – only to flowingly return like an unstoppable tide. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"For this album, I was especially inspired by the sea, the energy, and the exaltation that you can feel when you sit in front of the ocean at night,\" Neige explained about “Écailles de Lune”. \"The sea appears terribly fascinating, full of secrets, beautiful and frightening at the same time.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nALCEST‘s music has received many labels over the years including post-black metal, post-rock, shoegaze, and blackgaze to name some of the more commonly found terms. Yet whatever the band originally from Avignon and now based with Neige in Paris is called, their sound has always remained unique. Another typical element of their albums is a concept or theme that runs through the songs. On “Écailles de Lune” it is a tale of transformation. “This album’s story is not a metaphor for death as it might appear to be”, says Neige. “To me, it is about a man who decides to literally leave one world for another. It can rather be seen as a passage to another reality or another state of existence.” \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFor those, who want to follow in those footsteps and journey to another place, ALCEST offer a key. Just close your eyes and listen to “Écailles de Lune” and you will be taken far away to a world of musical wonders and haunting beauty – but beware, even roses of the otherworld have thorns.","brand":"details","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":48282708476227,"sku":"Pro 106","price":9.98,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD Digipak","offer_id":48282708541763,"sku":"Pro 106 LU","price":12.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1560\/2755\/files\/884388710627_a8b802be-d2fc-4fef-a813-faa9702b683a.jpg?v=1740768145"},{"product_id":"alcest-ecailles-de-lune-poster-flag","title":"Alcest - Écailles De Lune (Flag)","description":"Robust fabric with one-sided print.\u003cbr\u003e\nSize ca. 100x65 cm","brand":"details","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48282708803907,"sku":"AL EC FG","price":9.98,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1560\/2755\/files\/884388834842_518dc393-9259-4f7d-892d-b935bb547e62.jpg?v=1740768144"},{"product_id":"alcest-ecailles-de-lune-2015-black","title":"Alcest - Écailles De Lune 2015 (T-Shirt - black)","description":"Prophecy Label Merchandise","brand":"details","offers":[{"title":"L","offer_id":48282708869443,"sku":"AL ECN TS L","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"S","offer_id":48282708934979,"sku":"AL ECN TS S","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL","offer_id":48282708967747,"sku":"AL ECN TS X","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"XXL","offer_id":48282709000515,"sku":"AL ECN TS XX","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1560\/2755\/files\/884388840454_e08b5c1a-dbb9-408a-9d07-c1f3cfba4c1f.jpg?v=1740768143"},{"product_id":"alcest-faun","title":"Alcest - Faun (Women’s Shirt)","description":"Gildan Softstlye, 100% cotton","brand":"details","offers":[{"title":"M \/ black","offer_id":48282720698691,"sku":"AL FA GS M","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"S \/ black","offer_id":48282720731459,"sku":"AL FA GS S","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"M \/ white","offer_id":48282720764227,"sku":"AL FA GSW M","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"S \/ white","offer_id":48282720796995,"sku":"AL FA GSW S","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1560\/2755\/files\/884388840317_2c3c20f7-f6b9-46ab-886f-9c17a6ce88b9.jpg?v=1740768141"},{"product_id":"alcest-kodama","title":"Alcest - Kodama (CD Digipak)","description":"Kodama the fifth album from Blackgaze pioneers, Alcest, marks the French duo's ferocious return to the stylistic maximalism of its early albums while continuing the band's relentless pursuit for new sounds and fresh ideas.\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Kodama\" is the Japanese word for 'tree spirit' and 'echo' and from the album's structure and dynamics to its cinematic sound, \"Kodama\" indeed 'echoes' Alcest's 2010 classic, \"Écailles De Lune\".

Duality is also crucial for the visual approach of the album, realized by French graphic designer duo Førtifem.

The French post-black metal pioneers created a sound of lucent, dreamlike quality and otherworldly beauty that has equally defined them and been refined by them ever since.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn musical terms, ALCEST amalgamate calm, semi-acoustic passages, repetitive, hypnotic patterns, and captivating melodies with outbursts of harsh riffing and aggressive drumming. The same contrasting and complementing effect is used by band founder and guitarist Neige for his vocals. Clean singing that is morphing back and forth between a warm and darker tone and a gentle higher pitch occasionally gets swept aside by despairing shrieks and furious black voices – only to flowingly return like an unstoppable tide. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"For this album, I was especially inspired by the sea, the energy, and the exaltation that you can feel when you sit in front of the ocean at night,\" Neige explained about “Écailles de Lune”. \"The sea appears terribly fascinating, full of secrets, beautiful and frightening at the same time.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nALCEST‘s music has received many labels over the years including post-black metal, post-rock, shoegaze, and blackgaze to name some of the more commonly found terms. Yet whatever the band originally from Avignon and now based with Neige in Paris is called, their sound has always remained unique. Another typical element of their albums is a concept or theme that runs through the songs. On “Écailles de Lune” it is a tale of transformation. “This album’s story is not a metaphor for death as it might appear to be”, says Neige. “To me, it is about a man who decides to literally leave one world for another. It can rather be seen as a passage to another reality or another state of existence.” \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFor those, who want to follow in those footsteps and journey to another place, ALCEST offer a key. Just close your eyes and listen to “Écailles de Lune” and you will be taken far away to a world of musical wonders and haunting beauty – but beware, even roses of the otherworld have thorns.","brand":"details","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54199974265155,"sku":"PRO 106 LPC-2","price":21.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/1560\/2755\/files\/884388895713.jpg?v=1771313791"},{"product_id":"alcest-souvenirs-dun-autre-monde-vinyl-lp-white-green-marble","title":"Alcest - Souvenirs D'un Autre Monde (Vinyl LP - White\/Green Marble)","description":"Released in 2007, Alcest's debut album, \"Souvenirs d'un autre monde\", marks the starting point of the band's extraordinary career. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWith the release of \"Souvenirs d'un autre monde\", Alcest mastermind Neige forged a luminous new sound that floats on the fringes of metal, yet incorporates emotions of euphoria, bliss and nostalgia.
