Yea Sigur Rod are pristine. Them and slowdive definitely influenced Neige when making this

Such a good band for doing discog runs: short, varied and consistent as hell

I laugh when people say "Alcest went generic shoegaze/dream pop"



I can't think of a single other album that sounds anything like this

I don't know enough about shoegaze and dream pop tbh, but I love this album. The song writing is simply great

This is pretty unique yea, but I hear a lot of influence from poppier Sigur Ros and Slowdive too.

The influences are clear but the final execution is one of a kind

This isn’t my favorite by a long shot, but I’ll be damned if Voix Sereines isn’t a top five Alcest track.

"This is pretty unique yea, but I hear a lot of influence from poppier Sigur Ros and Slowdive too."

This one's so pretty but there's a certain sheen about it that I find a bit too sterile.

I see that too Boney. It's good, but drags a little and is a little too sugary sweet for me. Still cool that they made it though!
