We interviewed numerous bands from blackgaze and beyond (incl. Unreqvited, Sivyj Yar, and more) about Alcest's seminal second album “Écailles de Lune" -- released ten years ago today, it stands now as a genre-defining landmark influential to so many.
All the new metal releasing between October 20th and October 26th, 2019 -- spin (or skip) new music from Alcest, Dawn Ray'd, Botanist, Sunn 0))), Hour of Penance, and more.
We spoke with Neige about Alcest's sixth album, the dream-inducing and effervescent "Spiritual Instinct" which follows 2016's "Kodama" and releases Friday.
Alcest arrives in North America before Halloween as they make their way to Prophecy Fest in Brooklyn, which we're presenting and giving away tickets to. You can now also join our email list.
The full November 2nd and 3rd lineup has been announced, featuring the legendary Alcest. Tickets are available for the Brooklyn festival at Knitting Factory now.
