Concert of Aclest in the company of Birds In Row and Kaelan Mikla. Alcest is currently working on the new album Spiritual Instinct, which will be released by Nuclear Blast Records. The first announcement of the upcoming production is the single Protection.
Alcest is an extremely interesting French band founded by Stéphane Paut, a multi-instrumentalist who chose the nickname Neige. The band was founded in 2000, and Neige's childhood dreams of a fairy-tale land had a significant share in this. This fairy tale is clearly heard in the music of Alcest, in which the influences of post metal, shoegaze, black metal, which Stéphane has long been very close to, intersect. For some time he was a member of the esteemed French crew Peste Noire. Formation Birds In Row will also appear - these are the three men who began music playing in the French city of Laval, in a short time set off to the world with their compositions and get many fans of sharp, uncompromising playing. They have something to boast about, because they shared the stage with, for example, Amenra, Converge and Neurosis. Kælan Mikla will also play - it's a female trio from Iceland, which was founded in 2013 in Reykjavik. They are made up of Sólveig Matthildur Kristjánsdóttir (drums, synthesizers), Margrét Rósa Dóru-Harrysdóttir (bass guitar) and Laufey Soffía Þórsdóttir (vocals). They came up with the idea of creating a band together after winning a poetry competition that took place in a local library.
