So deafheaven bought an alcest album and then alcest bought a deafhaven album. The circle of life
Deafheaven also bought a drab majesty album. Then a few months later I saw Drab Majesty open up for Deafheaven in S.F. one of the best shows I've ever been to.
@@eldrunko89 post-life
Neige is the guy doing the spoken word on Please Remember from Sunbather too.
@@eldrunko89 I saw them together with Uniform in Boston, can confirm they are great live.
I really enjoyed both this and the Deafheaven episode. Great picks from both, some stuff I've heard of, and some cool sounding stuff I'm going to definitely check out. I really liked that he picked up a Dino jr. record, the last Deafheaven record definitely forayed into that 90's grunge/noise rock sound. If nu-metal can make a comeback, then why can't 90s noise stuff?
Neige listens exactly what I would imagine Neige would listen.
I love how he talks.
He sounds really enthusiastic and bored at the same time
Tis awesome
🤣🤣
He doesn't sound bored at all since music is his passion. it's called "calm" and "chill".
I think I talk like that too. 🤔 And I have the same impression from people. 😖
It’s because he’s French
Typical frenchman! 😁
@Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls 😁👍
You can never go wrong with Dead Can Dance.
Amen dude.
I could get lost listening to Lisa sing.
Man I’m Hispanic in East la the middle of the hood. The belly of the beast. I don’t know how I got into them and still have yet to meet anyone who knows of them or likes them. Makes me feel lonely sometimes haha.
Neige is such a cool guy, damn and he has impeccable taste.
O shit the empyrean profile pic, nice :)
@@julienmoreau2528 yeah love that album and the artwork is beautiful, frusciante was my entry into the mellower side of music and that album was my first of his!
@@robertdurney3253 same man big fan of fru and alcest too
(curtains best fru album huhu)
@@hillview73 I do love that one, my fave at the moment though is 'To Record Only Water for Ten Days' Has a warm texture I just love.
Amazing how this video alone revealed much more about Neige and Alcest's sound than most of his interviews. He was able to speak his mind without holding back about things he loves and completely fleshed out his taste in all types of music, videogames and movies with a few tasteful picks. This was the best!
Yeah
ASMR = Alcest Shows Music Records
Madlad.
INDEED
Excellent picks. He seems like a really cool dude.
Yeah! Love Niege & Alcest! Definitely a very cool cat!
Damn, so glad that The Chameleons are getting a shout-out.
I'm straight and I still have a huge crush on Neige
Who doesn't?
Feels like something better than a crush 😉
Understandable.
Never heard of Alcest before but this guy has some great taste in music and I am definitely going to check his stuff out now.
Welcome to the beginning of a beautiful journey.
Start with the first album :)
Yes he has, its amazing, versatile
Best picks of What's In My Bag. Because: Slowdive, Emma Ruth Rundle, Grimes, Dead Can Dance and Massive Attack are too damn awesome.
agreed, best I've seen while scouring these
Shadow Of The Colossus has for me one of the most amazing soundtracks ever, and that includes movies. You will not regret, Neige.
My favourite video game soundtrack (and video game) of all time. It's a shame that it isn't on Spotify.
Name of song that appaers in this video?
@@IsrraSkoll the first one is Monstrous People and the second one Opened Path
I wonder if he heard the last guardian soundtrack, it's amazing as well.
Neige should really be a music reviewer, his descriptions are really on point. Alcest is my favorite band, much respect!
Dead Can Dance is incredible
He seems like such a terrific dude. Of all the "What's In My Bag" episodes, I loved almost everything he picked the most. I feel like we have the exact same taste.
Instantly one of the best What's In My Bag videos! Amazing choices as well.
Big agree on that one! Also Vein is fucking sick.
Yeah, it was a very interesting episode. Nice vein pfp, that band kicks ass!
gotta show my love for Vein as well - an Amazing debut, for sure.
Oh, and this episode was cool as well - Slowdive FTW.
Alcest is criminally under rated
Weird choice for him to pick up a copy of Boss Baby on blu-ray but OK.
atomicbrain9401 Probably for the kids.
I got your comment to 69 likes boiii
@@lukess.s You've done it, you're it now!
@@spongebitchbobface that keeps them quite quiet when he fills their sockets or what?
Why weird?? Just a movie
Bumped into Neige the other day in the gundam section at a hobby/game shop called Surugaya in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Would love to see his 'what's in my bag' from that day, but didn't want to disturb him too much. Such a nice guy.
That's crazy! I saw Alcest live yesterday and I don't think they did a meet & greet or anything but at least I got a "love you too" when I yelled that I love him lol
Gundam rules
What a “had to be there” moment.
The Grimes pick surprised me. Her early albums like Geidi Primes, Halfaxa, and Darkbloom are pure lo-fi artistic genius.
I'm from Bulgaria and I'm happy Neige likes our magical chants 😊
ALCEST'S music is WONDERFUL and his picks are RIGHTEOUS. This guy knows what time of day it is!
Second skin! Totally agree, chameleons are totally underrated and amazing!
Listen the Tony Fletcher EP by them !!!
I saw Alcest open for Opeth at the roundhouse in london. I had never heard them before and hooooly shit they were awesome. Completely blew away Opeth.
Todd Cantley wow I'm surprised they opened for Opeth. They're so completely different
@@__somnii I wouldn't really say so... like black metal and death metal counterparts of each other almost
@@__somnii haha what? Opeth and Alcest are constantly compared to each other.
P33 interesting. Musically they are quite different. Alcest uses mostly Natural minor and Dorian modes in their songs, while Opeth is all over the place but generally harmonic minor, diminished, etc. So generally the point I meant is that opeth is more dissonant and dark, alcest is significantly more melodic and ambient
almost steal the show
He seems like a down-to-earth guy who has great taste in music that is easily recognizable, and we all can relate to; unlike other artists in this series who show super obscure picks that very few people know about.
Script of the Bridge. Been waiting for someone to pick up this stone cold classic. Was blessed enough to see the Chameleons play this record live a couple of months ago.
i love both alcest and dead can dance so much, it made me so excited to see him pick within the realm of a dying sun
Already loved Alcest but the moment they mentioned The Chameleons I lost my mind, both incredible.
It's incredible, he picks all the records that I love (special mention for The chameleons). I understand why Alcest is one of my favourite band
I was waiting to see a band/artist mention them and it finally happened. They are really underrated. They should be up there with the Cure or Joy Division.
Dead Can Dance - Within The Realm Of A Dying Sun is one of the most beautiful albums ever made.
That was a lesson in good taste and consistency.
I wouldn't expect any less from the founder of Alcest. Excellent taste in music.
Excellent choices from Neige. He had me at Dead Can Dance, The Chameleons and Slowdive.
I love that he likes Björk and Grimes
Best episode! Neige's picks - as far as predictable they may be for those who follow Alcest - are really great and original
Original? It's only the biggest alt/indie/music nerd bands of the 90s and 00s, and a few well-known contemporaries connected to the band. What list by a 30-something pop music geek doesn't include Massive Attack, Dead Can Dance, Slowdive, Dinosaur Jr., Björk and at least some of the big crescendowanker post-rock bands? All it's missing is some Radiohead, My Bloody Valentine, GY!BE, and Have A Nice Life, ffs.
I'm not knocking on the list, I found it very high quality but not exactly original or surprising. There was absolutely nothing (apart from the soundtracks) I wasn't already familiar with (except with the Chameleons only by name). And I am NOT a huge Alcest fan or particularly diehard about this type of music specifically.
He picked up Massive Attack and Grimes? And even likes New Order? I thought I couldn't like Alcest and this guy more but here I am
It'd be pretty obvious he likes New Order, Amesoeurs's EP was dedicated to Ian Curtis of Joy Division.
The Chameleons!! So cool he picked that. Script of the Bridge is incredible!
So glad he picked up Dead can Dance!
Did it again Amoeba ! This is the GREATEST thing on UA-cam. Thank You....
Explosions in the Sky and Bjork. Love it!
Yes! The Chameleons! more people should listen to this underrated post punk band
Seeing that neige is a fan of the chameleons just makes me really happy
Saw Alcest playing in Italy in 2010. It's great to see Neige here, and with such amazing choices in records!
Confermo, visti nel 2014, concerto magnifico
Hey. Do you have an Instagram?
One of the best eps. i've seen. Some phenomenal picks I couldn't agree more on (Dead Can Dance, Grimes, Massive Attack, Slowdive, Kenji Kawaii)
Finally, someone recognized the genius of The Chameleon UK.
HE BOUGHT A GRIMES LP, EVERYONE REMAIN CALM
You really know you are getting old when the guest casually refers to a Massive Attack LP as being a classic for many many years and I remember buying it when it first came out like it was only yesterday....
Dude I hear you. It was big news when it came out. The new Massive Attack! And it was amazing. Still is!
Fun fact: The Dead Can Dance song featured at the start, 'Dawn of the Iconoclast', is sampled at the beginning of Future Sound of London's iconic dance track, 'Papua New Guinea'. And is also used in Gladiator.
Neige is such a precious boi ❤️❤️❤️
Great selections... Intelligent, cool musician.
Man i love alcest’s music
Alcest is awesome!
Almost every album he bought is one of my favourites! Unbelievable! 😀😀😀😀😀
Always look forward to this! Never heard of this guy or the band, but always able to discover some new music
these are the best records for tripping on your day off at home
haha gonna next month:)
I've been waiting so long for this!!! Love his picks, I've been furiously taking notes!
Awesome episode, he sold me on Emma Ruth Rundle's album. Already listened to a few tracks online and it's amazing.
That was my favourite What's In My Bag so far. Neige has a brilliant music, movie and video game taste. 10/10 would hang.
I love all of his choices. Some of my favourite albums of all-time there.
He is so precious
The Chameleons, Alien Soundtrack, Dead Can Dance, Massive Attack, Slowdrive AND the Shadow of the Colossus OST. Damn, this boi has my exact music taste. Alcest is baller but for me Amesoeurs is where it is at.
THANK YOU AMOEBA FOR THIS EXCELLENT VIDEO !!!
It was beautiful to watch it! Neige have amazing music, movie and video games tastes, he is such an amazing and complete artist.
OMG! I love him even more after this video.
I don't think I've been this excited to see a "What's in my bag" ever. 🤘
A big W for anyone that picks up Post. Best album of the 90s.
What?! Emma Ruth Rundle is a good friend of Alcest?! My musical soulmates have collided!
I love this guy...when he got to Ghost in the Shell I couldn't stop smiling! It's my favorite anime! What a great video, I'm so glad I found this!
Love Alcest. Great picks, I need to check out Chameleons and Emma Ruth Rundle.
Slowdive! I’m buying his albums right now! Everything he recommended is amazing.
He likes so many bands that I like, I love this man's taste. Especially Slowdrive.
Thank you so much for this, I knew he had some very good taste on music since his music it's so incredibly good 👌
This is my favorite episode of whats in my bag so far... The Melvins episode its excellent too
Great taste on music thank you Neige!
And then that same year comes out Spiritual Instinct, crazy how it sounds like a mix of the anime songs and a mix of the other artists. Mindblowing!
Yeessss!!! Thank you!! I've been waiting too much.
Oh, sweet! Only been waiting for this one for the past like two months
I learned about new artists through these what's in my bag videos... Thanks amoeba
Slowdive! My all time favorite as well. Almost everything in your bag is what I like to listen to.
Excellent. So proud of that band; The choices are top notch (looks like my discotheque, really). Emma Ruth Rundle, in particular, is wonderful.
What's In My Bag? - Always welcome as a source of new information. Inspirational. Many thanks.
Great. I got a lot of new artists to check out. Thanks for the recommendations
