Nick WuszHOST
It sounded like
Jason WaltonHOST
Alcest at the end.
Jason WaltonHOST
That was
Nick WuszHOST
fucking awesome.
TonyHOST
They're like a core metal, not just black metal, but a core metal band for me.
TonyHOST
They were recommended alongside bands like Alcest and... uh, an Agaloc when I was like first getting into metal.
TonyHOST
Uh, so I have absolutely loved them for so long and I think everything they do is like perfect.
TonyHOST
I'm probably a little biased, but I don't, I don't think they do anything bad or mediocre.
MikeHOST
So Mastodon has been on tour for the past while.
MikeHOST
Yeah, they're getting near the end of their tour, and they made a stop in Greensboro.
MikeHOST
And with them were – Deaf Heaven, who made a big name for themselves several years ago, but also a band from France called Alceste that both Ashley and I really like.
MikeHOST
And they don't come to the US very often.
MikeHOST
The only time I had seen them in person, also Ashley was with me, was at this music festival in Baltimore back in like 2017, 2018, something like that.
Tori KravitzGUEST
Well, so there's the band.
Tori KravitzGUEST
I mean, they definitely have their flowers, but I think in the U.S. they are severely lacking in flowers.
Tori KravitzGUEST
I just saw a band last week called Alceste.
Tori KravitzGUEST
They're a French shoegaze black metal band.
Scott PenfoldHOST
I've heard of Alceste.
Scott PenfoldHOST
Yeah.
Scott PenfoldHOST
And I'm really into black metal.
JeffHOST
It's very exciting.
JeffHOST
And they're also currently on tour coming near here, I think this weekend with Alcest and Mastodon.
JeffHOST
So I recommend everyone go check them out.
JeffHOST
I think I saw the playlist or the set list.
JohnGUEST
Bizarrely through black metal stuff because there's a lot of French, it's called black gaze, it's like black metal meets shoegaze kind of stuff.
JohnGUEST
Like Alcest and they disconnect and stuff.
JohnGUEST
And I've
DannyHOST
kind of gone back.
TraceyHOST
Carrie McCoy on guitars and bass, and Daniel Tracy on drums.
TraceyHOST
Guest musicians on this album is Stephanie Nietzsche-Pont from Alcest.
TraceyHOST
Spoken word on Please Remember.
TraceyHOST
Producers for this album is Death Haven and Jack Shirley.
Kevin KautzmanHOST
Um, I have some biographical information I'll probably, I'll probably pause and read at some point.
Kevin KautzmanHOST
But to begin, why, why do you wanna talk about him? Why should people have him on their radar now? W- how is he germane today? Oh, oh, and I have a costume change, 'cause for people watching on YouTube, I have the, uh, the Alcest shirt.
Kevin KautzmanHOST
But then in the middle of this, I'm gonna change into the Minnesota Vikings Justin Jefferson jersey because both of my college teams lost in spectacular fashion yesterday, and I need the Vikings, uh, to save the day this weekend.
Kevin KautzmanHOST
Um, but it's also on brand.
Brian AlfredHOST
we'll release it should we we could all right i'll start on it today
Michelle PaterokGUEST
I saw a band live the other day.
Michelle PaterokGUEST
They're a French band called Alceste.
Michelle PaterokGUEST
And I looked up what they're categorized as because I didn't know what exactly it was.
Michelle PaterokGUEST
And apparently it's like post black metal shoegaze.
Perran HelyesHOST
Mainly for me, this has reminded me that I am very excited to see Wake here in the UK at Damnation Festival in a few weeks' time.
Perran HelyesHOST
And then, like I said, while we're on live albums, Alcest have also got one coming.
Perran HelyesHOST
It's live at Hellfest 2022, so not actually for their latest... album which was 2024 wasn't it but you know on the cycle preceding that um they've just decided this hellfest set was was good enough and good you know well recorded enough to be out there in a pro capacity it's got very nice really really beautiful um you know striking uh cover art and I have to say looking at this Alcest setlist from Hellfest, a really good classic Alcest, you know, collection of tracks as well with, you know, Arcade of the Loom Part 2, Autre Temps, Kodama, Deliverance from Shelter Closing, good.
Perran HelyesHOST
And finally, live music news on this side of the Atlantic, very little of it in, you know, grander areas this week, but we do have the announcement the Exerts are doing a headline tour, I believe I read somewhere, that they were involved with a Twin Atlantic tour that has maybe gone under.
Perran HelyesHOST
It's no longer happening, so this has been sort of organized to go ahead in its place.
