I don't remember being hugely impressed by Les Discrets when I gave them a try god knows how long ago, might give the new one a listen if I manage to cut down my 2016 backlog a bit.
I haven't listened to any of the preview tracks from Kodama, I'd rather hear the whole thing fresh. That press release might be making it sound more interesting/adventurous than it actually is but I'm pretty sure I'm going to enjoy it anyway.

I think this might be the time to start liking Alcest again

Really good and a great change of pace. It rocks a lot harder than the last one.

New one is exactly what I was expecting but I was hoping for, idk, a little more. I mean I like it fine but when I hear a band treading water this much I can't help but find it slightly offputting.

The three tracks from this that are available on Spotify are really, really good.

Alcest is somehow becoming one of my favorite bands without me noticing

Listening to an advance of the full album and it's a damn treat.

almost feel like it's cheating to put your metal in my shoegaze and vice versa but this rules
can only assume that there are other people doing this sort of thing; tell me about them pls
