Alcest - Écailles De Lune Pt. 1

[@awkwardandrew3031]

It feels like I’ve always known this song, that it was just waiting for me to find it. This whole album is PERFECT! Never felt more emotion from any other music. Thank you Alcest, thank you Neige!

[@prophecyBC]

enchantingly familiar

[@arthurplatonov1247]

For real

[@raeluz9401]

i agree

[@SHINIGAMX]

Songs like this makes you really fall in love with solitude. Perhaps the reason why most people do not find beautiful this kind of music is because they have never felt alone enough to enjoy and understand it; it's in loneliness, when your heart aches and begs you to crawl that you can really feel it and have these fucking goosebumps

[@TheNightTyrant]

I love this music along with industrial, power, folk metal and well I don't have friends they bring peace to my ears screw main stream music when real art is here.

[@ukiz]

years and years ago one my girlfriend broke with me, and the only thing healed me - alcest...

[@austins.6805]

Beautifully said.

[@3dprinterjam263]

This is a brilliant comment, and so very true for me pretty much my whole life, even now, being married with little kids...this piece allows you to see the full majesty of that solitude like very very few experiences with other people can give you. Right on.

[@davidburns6284]

The band Novembre also has a similar dark, beautiful and introspective quality. Please check them out if you haven't already.

​Lol 😂

[@TheKonstantin1996]

Five years ago before I left my home country and home village I was working by my parent's house splitting firewoods. It was the middle of January, the skies were grey, flakes of snow were dancing in the tree crowns. When this song started to play in my headphones for the first time in my life I felt a connection with myself, nature, and the divine esthetics of sound. I haven't been back there for a long time, but this year I wanna go back there in January. I will go to the forest by my parent's home, put my headphones in, turn this song on and dive into this beauty again. Thank you, Alcest, you remind me very important thing - loneliness can be beautiful and life is good.

[@OlegTulyak]

Ну что, получилось вернуться в родное место?

[@jasonsworld333]

Yes did you

[@zoepenna4947]

This is the song my son was born too ♡♡♡ it brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it. Absolutely gorgeous ♡♡♡

[@victortheoneandonly]

That's so beautiful..

[@shriyasridharamaiya9216]

you know the kind of music...which grabs your attention the first few seconds into the song? You go like "Ok, interesting" and then the song gets better, you be like "I knew it, this is promising, very nice" then it gets even better, you think, "This song is fuckin' brilliant, period." and then the final stages, be like "Can this song get any better?" and it actually does. That's the end, you have no more words to describe the beauty of the song. Well, yeah, I've been feeling that during every Alcest song I've been listening to today XD

La lumière de juillet s'eteint sur les grèves et songeur, je laisse mes pensées se perdre à l'horizon flamboyant La rumeur des vagues m'apaise, je profite de cet instant précieux, invitant la chaude brise marine à raviver me sens alanguis Hanté par le mirage des jours heureux j'attends que naissent au large les échos de la nuit Mes pensées se noient à l'horizon

[@sheilacolclasure9259]

Alcest - Écailles de lune (Part I) (English translation) Artist: Alcest Album: Écailles de lune Song: Écailles de lune (Part I) English translation Moon Scales (Part I) July's light goes out over the shores and, pensive, I let my thoughts get lost into the blazing horizon The murmur of the waves pacifies me, I make the most of this precious moment, inviting the warm seaside breeze to revive my languid senses Haunted by the illusion of happier days, I'm waiting for the echoes of night to arise over the sea My thoughts drown on the horizon

[@ChuckECheese666]

Alcest , is the Definition Of perfection on Earth.

[@s_u_l_f_u_r]

Cold and dreamy.

[@HeavenFireSword]

4:00 is one of the saddest moments in the history of music. It's not even dispair, just the immesurable sadness of a world falling apart.

[@cassiasouza6144]

This song will never age. I will always come back here. ♥

[@rociovillegas2200]

Love this part: 5:00, it feels so deep. The whole song is pretty good. For some reason, I can imagine myself falling into a crystalline ocean on a full moon night, finding a forgotten world under the sea that has a thousand stories to tell.

[@prophecyBC]

well put

[@angelurbina8158]

I can't be the only one that feels the shivers down my spine when those guitars kick in.

[@JebJester]

You're not the only one. I also get chills when you touch my tooter

[@didyma]

just wanted to stop by and say Thank You Alcest for this song. This is one of the most intense emotional journeys I've sensed.

[@prophecyBC]

you are welcome

[@yulianamunera9569]

Es demasiado hermoso escuchar esto. Maravilla de canción.

[@stallmensch]

The most magical arpeggios from 4:00. A perfect soundtrack to a background of wooded hills.

[@3dprinterjam263]

Only today discovered this group, randomly, while looking for other stuff...first piece was the title track on Kodama, which absolutely floored me, but this piece, especially around the 4:46 mark to just over the 6:00 mark, wow. Just wow. Like Joy Division distilled to 250 times its potency, but married to the most beautiful early Pelican stuff I've never heard...got really emotional hearing this...a truly transporting experience. These guys don't just do incredible things with their music, they literally show you everything we seek from the experience of it.

[@SpartanLaserCanon]

This is one of those Metal songs that sound good on acoustic guitar. I love the unique use of the chords they chose.

[@ericnees5727]

J ai découvert alcest avec enjoy the noise (cimer bro !!) Et je ne peut qu'être que remplit de nostalgie en écoutant ces musiques. Merci neige et l homme lave vaisselle

[@Amywaymee12]

No sound has ever evoked such an emotion out of me. They are one of a kind.

[@TheHysterique]

This is shoegaze, ambiant, black metal. As if we, in Canada, or Quebec, don't know about black metal, at least we can argue without calling others names. Respect from Metal Noir Québécois fan.

[@cassiasouza6144]

Shoegaze/Post Black. ♥

[@Embrod]

This is Blackgaze - fusion of Shoegaze and Atmospheric Black Metal, or early example of Post-Black Metal.

[@pjsmith2744]

it’s not really Shoegaze. It’s more blackgaze which used shoegaze elements mixed with post metal with black metal thrown in for good measure. Alcest pretty much started the Blackgaze movement.

[@WeWantYouToStay]

Everyone's talking about their favourite parts yet I don't see one mention of 3:30... for me this is musical perfection

[@Hikennoace7]

Basically

[@ElizabethHernandez-ck3zl]

La lumière de juillet s'éteint sur les grèves Et songeur, je laisse mes pensées se perdre Á l'horizon flamboyant. La rumeur des vagues m'apaise, Je profite de cet instant précieux, Invitant la chaude brise marine À raviver mes sens alanguis. Hanté par le mirage des jours heureux J'attends que naissent au large Les échos de la nuit. Mes pensées se noient à l'horizon. Les heures filent, la mer soupire Sous des astres lointains Déposés en une pincée d'or Tremblante sur les houles. Elle ouvre sa danse hypnotique, Et absorbe mon regard décoloré.

Excelente banda! Lindo som, me lembra quando tive minha banda "Dark Winter" quando propomos a tocar o Depressive Black Metal numa linha Ambient, de uma forma reflexiva e contemplativa nos idos tempos de 2006 quando o Uaral estava no auge, era nosso sonho, e o Alcest tornou o realidade, bravo.

[@MetalfistTV]

Beautifull music.

[@waywardstoner9416]

I'm a big fan of both black metal and shoegaze so when I heard of this thing called blackgaze I instantly left Wikipedia and came here although I don't even speak french. It is a sure thing that this band has its own style and Neige is a very talented musician being able to create such a good mixing of two completely different genres. Nevermind what term people uses to describe what this is, blackgaze sounds cool to me but you can even call it "beautiful music" or "pretty black metal" and it'd still be right.

Ya 200k views is a lot for an indie band like Alcest. Also BlackGaze, which is mix of Black Metal and Shoegaze is fairly new genre. Alcest is a great band and they are very well received for being creators of this genre.

[@neige8408]

Ay Pulu Temmuzun ışığı kıyılardan çekiliyor ve dalgın düşüncelerimin alevli ufukta kaybolmalarına izin veriyorum Dalgaların mırıltısı beni sakinleştiriyor, bu kıymetli anın keyfini çıkarıyorum, sıcak sahil esintisini, tembel duyularımı canlandırması için çağırıyorum. Daha mutlu günlerin yanılsamaları tarafından ele geçirildim, gecenin yankılarının denize ulaşmasını bekliyorum. Düşüncelerim ufukta boğuldu.
