Leaning hard into the hallmarks of shoe-gaze, reverberating, layered guitar underscored by a deep and melodic base create a depth of sound that perfectly accompanies the dreamy aesthetic of <em><em>Les chants de l&#8217;aurore<\/em><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Komorebi&#8221; and &#8220;L&#8217;Envol&#8221; kick off the album with a sweet brilliance and ethereal dignity. The songs are undeniably positive and reach for the gut like a free-fall from the clouds. Soaring, sweeping vocals sends the feeling of flying straight to the chest. &#8220;Flamme Jumelle&#8221; evokes this sense as well, utilizing repetitiveness as a tool that tugs at your feelings and begs you to stay inside the intensity of the track. \u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<p>\n<iframe title=\"ALCEST - L&#039;Envol (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/haQ_zgn9ck4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;Am\u00e9thyste&#8221; breaks the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/cloudkicker\">Cloudkicker<\/a><\/strong>-esqueness of the first two tracks, bringing a sense of longing a darker feel to the record. Glazed with screams and black metal riffs, the song is a stand-out among the tracks with an ending that kicks your ass with <strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/alcest\">Alcest<\/a><\/strong> <\/strong>bringing all of themselves to the table. &#8220;L&#8217;Enfant da la Lune&#8221; rides out the same wave of earnestness, bringing back the kiss of black metal drums and guitar to create a palpable energy. Paired with harmonized, clean &#8220;ahhs&#8221;, the song plays with swells of emotion and pared back introspective instrumentation. With another passionate ending, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/alcest\">Alcest<\/a><\/strong> is really looking to zip you open and pour themselves right into your soul.<\/p>\n<p><strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/alcest\">Alcest<\/a><\/strong> <\/strong>is known for making the ugly pretty and <em><em>Les chants de l&#8217;aurore<\/em> <\/em>is no exception. In fact, with <em><em>Les chants de l&#8217;aurore<\/em><\/em> they are perhaps leaning into this idea more than ever. The album is an easy, beautiful listen. As the sun sets and darkness begins to envelop the horizon, the song &#8220;L&#8217;Adieu&#8221; readies you for the graceful transition from the energy of the day into the coolness of an evening. A soft and meaningful track, <strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/alcest\">Alcest<\/a><\/strong> <\/strong>perfectly translates the end of a day into the end of an album. I&#8217;d almost call this album conceptual, taking you on that &#8220;end of the movie&#8221; credits feeling, as if a story has been told and <em><em>Les chants de l&#8217;aurore<\/em><\/em> is the conclusion, the resolution, or the moral to be taken away.<\/p>\n<p><em>Les chants de l&#8217;aurore<\/em> is a triumph and <strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/alcest\">Alcest<\/a><\/strong> <\/strong>has continued to set the bar for themselves high. The band, all two of them, have a knack for creating music that is hard to ignore, pulling you in deeper and deeper as the album goes on. <em><em>Les chants de l&#8217;aurore<\/em> <\/em>is a pure, unbridled expression of the soul and is unapologetic about wringing out your heart at just the right moments. Another win for <strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/alcest\">Alcest<\/a><\/strong><\/strong>, <em><em>Les chants de l&#8217;aurore<\/em><\/em> might be on the best album of the year lists for 2024.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<p>\n<iframe title=\"ALCEST - Flamme Jumelle (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B_fCrew2ZOQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/reviews\/album-review-alcest-les-chants-de-laurore\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ebbing and flowing, brightening and gently fading, the newest release from atmosphere-masters Alcest is the perfect album to accompany a long evening drive into the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":228257,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-228256","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228256","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=228256"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228256\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/228257"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=228256"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=228256"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=228256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
