It's a shame this isn't getting lots of fantastic reception on here. I'm really loving this.

Have you heard any other Alcest Mongi? Because if you haven't checked out at least Ecailles de Lune you might not get why everyone's disappointed by this

I've said it plenty before, but don't forget to wear a cardigan if you're planning on checking this out.

Well tbh I don't like black metal. Believe me I've trying getting into it. So I most likely won't like his other work as much. I just

think this is beautiful music.

It's barely black metal man, I am not a fan of BM either but I have it 5'd. There's only 2 songs that actually use that vocal style. Maybe give ecailles de lune part 1 a try?

Album is pretty decent, but I like my Alcest with black metal influences. The 2 first albums are sweet, this has good songs but seems more like something created by sigur ros. By the way, pitchfork most of the time is lame.

Ok I'll give it a listen then. Maybe if the style is used it the right moments I could appreciate the style.

It's pretty much the only slightly black metal influenced thing I ever listen to. Can't really enjoy even Sunbather for god's sake

Same I tried. There was some great music going on in the background but the vocals totally ruined it for me to the point where

i could give it a really low rating

This album works well as a cleanser before listening to other Alcest albums, actually.

this not having any black metal doesn't really have much to do with why it isn't that good. after Voyages the original alcest premise had been conceptually completed and its accompanying sound had been somewhat exhausted. leaving behind the last of the metal vestiges was what I expected and honestly what I wanted from this album. it just wasn't executed well.

that's all well and good feanaro, but what kind of alien creature like that (your dp) would wear a turtle neck like that? Also are those strands of skin or hair, dafuq's going on there?
