hello Sgland today I come to tell you my experience about the new album '' Spiritual Instinct '' of my favorite band
Alcest ..
I wouldn't be writing if it wasn't something very important to me... I don't really like talking about my stuff, but this is something I need...
first about the wonderful and impactful art, I say in a way that awakens
curiosity even from those who don't know the band
and what it might really be. this album is literally a trip to another plane and we like it the most
when the subject is alcest.
this album is involved with nostalgia, remorse, despair, an internal battle,
in the pursuit of freedom, in the liberation of this corp, (because I believe that we are a soul and only have one body, temporary.
It's more than just listening, you penetrate the music, Spiritual Instinct is the light in the dark
for me alcest is the light in my darkness. I believe there are no words to express all this feeling ... Another thing is about this "invented language" but it sounds familiar and even warms the soul. Sapphire music is a strong example.
I remember that as soon as it launched I had to listen many times because I just loved it, loved it so much it's impossible not to hear and trying to sing along ahahaha this is really very good.
I loved all the songs, but Le miroir touched me in a special way, just like other people ...
the dark and deep lyrics, a song to be felt and lived, when I went out on the street I put my headphones on and walked away, and felt infinite.
I'll put her lyrics here and the link for you
Je suis une image dans l'ombre
Un lieu vaguement ébloui
Au sein des profondes ténèbres
Une diffuse clarté qui luit
C'est pourquoi mon âme est sombre
Comme les fleuves de l'Erebe
Et les sources de la nuit
C'est pourquoi je réfléchis
Le ciel d'azur et la lumière
Tout ce qui passe tout ce qui change
...
see some pictures of my disk :
of course I couldn't stop talking about the bonus disc ... it contains 3 songs in a remixed version...
look at this art
The deluxe version of which features remixes of 'Sapphire' by celebrated synthwave producer PERTURBATOR and 'Protection' by long-time Chelsea Wolfe collaborator Ben Chisholm, in their own way articulating how ALCEST seem to dip their toes in a multitude of musical genres without ever quite fitting in.
“In the metal scene ALCEST is a weird band, in the indie/post-rock scene ALCEST is a weird band- we never quite fit in,” Neige reflects. “This is how I feel in life, always an outsider; It’s not a problem, it’s just the way it is.” It is this duality that fuels »Spiritual Instinct«’s soul-searching urgency, triumph through adversity writ on transcendent scale. “I put so much pressure on myself for the record to be good that it was actually fueling my anxiety,” Neige closes. “Now with perspective I can feel the positive affect it has had to put these things on record, outside of me in a way – it was a cathartic process.”
...
