FLAMME JUMELLE
Les jours défilent
Sans que rien ne change
Mes mots s’éclipsent
Pour peindre le manque incessant
De ton feu qui chavire
Et de l’Ailleurs qui nous attend
Échappée d’une autre heure
J’entends ta voix familière
Noyée dans un violent
Silence dépeuplé
Éloigné de ton coeur
Lors de matins glacés
Figés dans le temps
La nuit m’enserre
Tout oublier
Pour enfin me souvenir
J’erre sans pouvoir
Retrouver mon chemin
M’enfonçant
Dans toujours plus de nuit
Ta main contre la mienne
Les mémoires incandescentes
De ton visage rieur
Et tout pour pouvoir les revivre

Alcest soothes us when the world is in flames. Thank you.

[@MalikKhiljiravengaming]

English translation The days go by Nothing changes My words slip away To paint the incessant lack Of your capsizing fire And the Elsewhere that awaits us Escape from another hour I hear your familiar voice Drowned in a violent Depopulated Silence Away from your heart On icy mornings Frozen in time The night surrounds me Forget it all

[@warlockdruid]

That chorus riff is gonna be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. In a good way.

[@maruki___]

I hope you find yourself someone that looks at you the same way Alina looks at Coralie at 2:32

It's a tough time for me to keep myself alive but i think i've to live once more for alcest's music art 😇🙏🏿

you can definitely do it. better times do come around eventually, often in a way one doesn't expect them too, life is unpredictable so you always have to just try to go on, I believe in you! I hope you have a good day and week and month and year and life

Alcest, le seul groupe qui mène le métal à la sensibilité spirituelle, et les personnes qui vivent des expériences spirituelles au métal. 😮 Flamme Jumelle écrit au singulier, trace de l'unité que tu y vis Neige, va toucher le cœur de bien plus de personnes que le public originel d'Alcest. Merci à ces danseuses magiques qui incarnent tout le parcours que l'on vit dans ce lien. Les étapes, les périodes, je les vois sauter d'une vie à une autre à travers les différentes paysages qui suivent le fil conducteur de leur âme. Tout y est, l'omniprésence absente, les moments d'obsession, d'être comme hanté par l'Autre. Bravo, merci, gratitude. 🙏

[@coldmetal2668]

This music video evokes a sense of conflict, love and passion.. fighting our demons and struggling but always holding onto the ones we love, that is humanity. Not social media and politics and everything else distracting us. It's pure and what makes us human, the struggle, the love, feeling alive..

[@davidnw8534]

I had a rough day today and discovered this song. I just sat here crying while listening to it for five minutes. Thank you 🖤.

[@lavenderlady4]

Lets cry all (Alcest fans) together!

[@nb1inheaven788]

... Yes just crying and that's all ... Merci Neige & co, on vous aime !!!

[@MusicmyZombie]

Crying is pure

[@fafolaw]

Thank you for making me feel like my soul was healing for 5 minutes and 22 seconds, I can't wait for the whole album.

[@weltenbrandt545]

Remembering the times when I was 18, discovering Alcest, now turning 31, the magic of Neige's music always remains the same!

[@topher_riveros]

Alcest me ha ayudado mucho en mis momentos de crisis. Y espero que ha muchos que sienten la música de esta banda también 🤎🫂

[@7ulian7apataC]

Comparto esto. Ya más de una década con su compañía.

+1000 su música me tiene sanado malos momentos!! Más de 12 años que los escucho

[@deellezgar4210]

Cada que escucho sus canciones me hace sentir que la vida es más hermosa y que hay que disfrutarla. Es música terapéutica para mi🙏 espero que está banda siga sacando canciones así de bellas que están en un nivel distinto al resto.

[@corentinschieb2721]

I had the great pleasure and honor of working on this music video with Kendy Ty and the dancers : something tainted with nostalgia, melancholy and onirism to go along with the beautiful melody and lyrics carried by this song. I'm really happy for this release and I sincerely hope you will enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks a lot to Neige and to Alcest for your trust on this beautiful project ⛰🌄

[@Carnelust]

Do you remember the names of the performers? It's a beautiful work of art.

[@corentinschieb2721]

@@Carnelust Thank you so much ! Sure, they are Coralie Bénard and Alina Lugovskaya :)

[@lavenderlady4]

[@user-im6lm9oj1s]

Esperaba algo más,pésimo trabajo No me gustó el clip

[@marcotuliorocha3712]

The "dance" is fucking ugly. Everything on this is stupid. Very lame.

[@pedrocaetano5032]

Sometimes I listen to Alcest and the only thing I can think is "HOW ?", how can they create masterpieces like this ?!!!!

[@luchermans6512]

This one has some very strong "Shelter" vibes (both the song and the choreography of the clip). I know I'm in the minority, but I really like the dreamy atmosphere of that album and still listen to it frequently. I applaud their decision to add some of those elements to the new release, though I'm not sure whether it's intentional. Great work.

[@Rain_power]

It does and I appreciate the more dynamic drumming akin to Kodama mixed in.

[@Hipp0campus_1]

While I consider some songs on Shelter being on the weaker side, there is a reason Alcest play Delivrance as an outro for all of their shows. It is just magical.

[@raphael.013]

Alcest é a banda mais bonita que já ouvi, se você é BR deixa seu like aqui pra eu não me sentir sozinho

[@MrErikbaan]

What an amazing song. Goosebumps ! This is a painting with music instead of paint

[@laurabuenrostro720]

I love this song, but also the landscape, the photography, the dance, all of its art. It's amazing! 🌌

[@holybissap8456]

Song is actually pretty simple, just pushing the main riff makes it catchy, but the video just flows in an incredible way. Amazing art work

[@laurabuenrostro720]

It doesn't matter how complex or not it is. What matters to me is everything they transmit, it's magic. 

[@aaronsiverling1059]

I've never heard of this band, much less seen this video. And now its my favorite music video of all time and I'm going to get the album on spotify. Thank you

[@s.c8949]

It's crazy to see how far Alcest have come and see people who are just discovering them now :)

[@somethingelsedoesmatter]

I will be here for the premiere! The last album helped me get through a week-long stay in hospital isolation, struggling to survive through COVID. Now I've got another major crisis in my life, and this new album is sure to be there for me, like a good friend's comforting words. 💙

[@baileygregg6567]

[@user-bu5ms4wp9p]

[@fitbh703]

Haunting and uplifting at the same time….

[@tricie2419]

Dans cette vidéo, il y a cette référence que le masculin (Yang) porte sa féminine (Yin) dans le parcours initiatique des Flammes Jumelles. Un clin d'oeil aussi à cette fameuse Danse des Flammes Jumelles : un ballet des âmes qui s'attirent comme des aimants et qui se rejettent à chaque apparition des peurs et des souffrances (les 5 blessures de l'âme) lors des reconnexions d'âmes ou retrouvailles, par effets miroirs... Le fil rouge qui les lie ne peut se rompre ! Les Flammes Jumelles (Twin Flames/Cosmic Twins) ont une mission divine à accomplir sur terre en ces temps de grands changements depuis 2012 (éveil et expansion des consciences, qui passent inévitablement par la nuit noire de l'âme). Les Flammes Jumelles Originelles, une fois réunies et leurs âmes fusionnées, grâce à la sexualité sacrée, trouveront la paix intérieure, leurs âmes prisonnières du cycle des réincarnations sur Terre seront libérées. Un chemin de Foi vers la Vie éternelle. Une manifestation de l'esprit Saint et de l'Amour Divin dans nos corps/âme/esprit.

[@coralielouis703]

This is the power of immortality, true souls last forever as his music cause isnt just music it's endless emotion .

[@Athanor73]

En voyant ce clip, on peut se demander si c'est la danse qui est mise au service de la musique ou bien si c'est la musique qui est mise au service de la danse tant la chorégraphie de ces deux danseuses colle à la perfection à la musique et ce mélange nous emporte dans ce tourbillon d'attraction et de répulsion, à l'image de la vie. Bravo Alceste, bravo Coralie et Alina et merci Nuclear Blast pour les faire venir jusqu'à nous !

[@JonathanGarcia-iu3ln]

I speak French and I never been able to understand what he said, few words at best 😅 absolutely beautiful music indeed, but probably the worst elocution ever

[@lzrbolanos]

@@JonathanGarcia-iu3ln There's this one interview when Neige said he doesn't articulate on purpose when he's singing the lyrics coz he doesn't want people to understand the lyrics. For what I understand, maybe he wants us to not focus on the lyrics, but to hear the vocals the same way we hear the other instruments. For someone who doesn't speak french, I like how their songs give a lot of meaning already even before I try to read the lyrics. 🧡

Alcest, is music from another world, a demonic combination of Black Metal and the angelic side of Shoegaze. ✨

Thank You Alcest for soothing my life in a world of chaos inside life. Someday I want to thank You personally for helping me going through the tragic events of life peacefully ❤️❤️❤️

[@blueface]

Alcest never misses, forever one of my favorite bands. When I was 14 they had a few snippets of Souvenirs D’un Autre Monde up on MySpace. I remember ripping them and listening to them everyday and grabbed the album as soon as preorders went up. Today at 31 years old, Alcest still hits the spot and I will continue to support them for as long as they’re around. This track has been on repeat all damn day!

[@MaxMustermann-rp5kn]

That burst into synced dancing at 2:41 is so powerful. The whole video is absolutely beautiful and fits the music like a glove. Props to the two dancers and the cutter as the transitions between the settings and the overall composition is also very well done. No need to mention that the music of Alcest is not the icing on the cake, but the whole bakery.

[@brennuvargr4638]

Same here. Just wanna listen to it on repeat, like I did with 'L'Envol' when that one was released. I honestly think this will be my second favourite album by them ('Souvenirs d'un autre monde' will probably always be tops, but I'm getting really fucking high hopes for their new album)! :)

[@lzrbolanos]

After listening to Flamme Jumelle, L'envol just became 10x better. Lol. I love how each songs set the vibe for the other songs in the same album, which make them a lot better. I liked Flamme Jumelle right away coz I've already been listening to L'envol. I can't wait to hear everything from this album.

[@ArpeggioPegasusMusic]

This is art. Proud of our French bands for coming up with new ideas like this all the time.
