Best blackgaze band.
>>
I know I listened to this a lot in high school, thanks for giving me something to look up again.
>>
>>60711718
Pretty much this
>>
>>60712100
What genre is it if not metal?
>>
>>60712290
blackened shoegaze
>>
>>60712100
It's romantic metal
>>
>>60712341
Which is a metal genre, so what's the problem?
>>
>>60712377
no, it's a shoegaze subgenre
let me put it this way, would you call 5SOS punk?
>>
>>60712463
>would you call 5SOS punk?
Yeah. Pop punk is pop and punk. Blackened shoegaze is black metal and shoegaze.

Fusion genres are necessarily members of both genres they're fusing.
>>
>>60712463
I've not listened to this album but it seems a bit disingenuous to compare it to 5SOS because it's not your epic dark metal.
>>
I like it
>>
>>60712523
I did not compare the two bands, just made an example about labels
I love Alcest
>>
>>60712195
I had fucking great taste in high school. I remember it now and this definitely deserves a buy.
>>
Love that album. Romantic and dreamy. Tir Nan Og was a nice surprise.
>>
Ecailles de Lune is an absolute classic, one of my favorites. Souvenirs and Les Voyages are great too, and Shelter is underrated as hell.

The kvlt demo is one of the most abominable things I've ever heard though, it's worth looking up for a laugh.
>>
>>60711571
I only heard that one with the very pretty cover, I was highly disappointed that it was just fairly generic shoegaze

I hate this trend of getting beautiful artwork for mediocre albums
>>
>>60712290
shoegaze you fucking faggot pleb
