#ALCEST #HELLFEST2022 #hellfestopenair With seven albums demonstrating a unique sonic trajectory, Alcest is here to defend its latest, Spiritual Instinct, released in 2019 on the legendary German label Nuclear Blast. Born in 1999 as a solo black metal project by multi-instrumentalist and jack-of-all-trades Neige, Alcest was enriched in 2009 by the arrival of its permanent drummer Winterhalter. Although adept at sharp guitars and thunderous double pedals, the group has never ruled out an adventure beyond its Black Metal roots. Flirting as much with post rock as dream pop or shoegaze, Alcest is one of the rare bands that can boast of having invented a musical genre: blackgaze. Mixing the harshness of black metal with the melodic vapors of shoegaze, Spiritual Instinct, their latest album is a perfect example of this broth of influences that defines the sound invented by the group. A very particular sound that most likely makes Alcest the only music group from the Gard commune of Bagnols-sur-Cèze that Robert Smith of The Cure could cite. The most famous goth in the United Kingdom having invited them to play in London in 2018 during a festival that he curated. A group apart, therefore, that takes the audience of the Temple stage to sonic lands of which only they have the secret. Concert filmed on June 19, 2022 at Hellfest, Clisson.
