Still my favorite Alcest record honestly. Like don’t get me wrong, his blackgaze stuff is legendary and he kills it every record in that vein but Shelter was such a nice change of pace and it’s just so goddamn beautiful. Hopefully Neige will make another record like that someday.
They are, there isn’t an Alcest record that I don’t like. I just really enjoyed the shift in tone on Shelter.
Both the single and the press release have me very excited. I like their other stuff, but this is the progression I always hoped they'd make.
Very excited about this. But I for real can’t preorder a record that won’t ship until 2022 most likely. Just a wild way to tie up funds.
new bermuda is my favorite deafheaven album, from the kettle unto the coil and black brick are easily in my top 10 favorite songs of theirs, so its fair to say the darker, heavier side of this band is my favorite aspect, however "great mass of color" is automatically one of their 3 best songs to me. if they pull off this side of their sound this well for the whole album it could easily become my favorite of theirs.
Took me a few listens but I'm definitely coming around to it. I really don't miss them being heavy tbh
Saw a tweet yesterday that the song sounded like Turnover covered AFI. lmaooo great song and loving the direction for them.
