It feels like I’ve always known this song, that it was just waiting for me to find it. This whole album is PERFECT! Never felt more emotion from any other music. Thank you Alcest, thank you Neige!
Songs like this makes you really fall in love with solitude. Perhaps the reason why most people do not find beautiful this kind of music is because they have never felt alone enough to enjoy and understand it; it's in loneliness, when your heart aches and begs you to crawl that you can really feel it and have these fucking goosebumps
I love this music along with industrial, power, folk metal and well I don't have friends they bring peace to my ears screw main stream music when real art is here.
This is a brilliant comment, and so very true for me pretty much my whole life, even now, being married with little kids...this piece allows you to see the full majesty of that solitude like very very few experiences with other people can give you. Right on.
you know the kind of music...which grabs your attention the first few seconds into the song? You go like "Ok, interesting" and then the song gets better, you be like "I knew it, this is promising, very nice" then it gets even better, you think, "This song is fuckin' brilliant, period." and then the final stages, be like "Can this song get any better?" and it actually does. That's the end, you have no more words to describe the beauty of the song. Well, yeah, I've been feeling that during every Alcest song I've been listening to today XD
Five years ago before I left my home country and home village I was working by my parent's house splitting firewoods. It was the middle of January, the skies were grey, flakes of snow were dancing in the tree crowns. When this song started to play in my headphones for the first time in my life I felt a connection with myself, nature, and the divine esthetics of sound. I haven't been back there for a long time, but this year I wanna go back there in January. I will go to the forest by my parent's home, put my headphones in, turn this song on and dive into this beauty again. Thank you, Alcest, you remind me very important thing - loneliness can be beautiful and life is good.
Mi hermana y yo nos acostamos con esta canción sufría bulling y casi siempre llegaba golpeado ella siempre se acostaba a tras mío y me metía sus brazos en mi cuello y abrasaba, ahora ya no esta y no se si siga yo em pie en este mundo la extraño y trato de aguantar pero cada ves se hace más difícil. Quisiera alcanzarla, verla de nuevo ;(
La música es una máquina del tiempo, ella no te dejó sólo, ella está junto a ti ánimo así se lea cliché pero animo con fuerza y a renacer como el ave Fénix
Alcest - Écailles de lune (Part I) (English translation) Artist: Alcest Album: Écailles de lune Song: Écailles de lune (Part I) English translation Moon Scales (Part I) July's light goes out over the shores and, pensive, I let my thoughts get lost into the blazing horizon The murmur of the waves pacifies me, I make the most of this precious moment, inviting the warm seaside breeze to revive my languid senses Haunted by the illusion of happier days, I'm waiting for the echoes of night to arise over the sea My thoughts drown on the horizon
La lumière de juillet s'eteint sur les grèves et songeur, je laisse mes pensées se perdre à l'horizon flamboyant La rumeur des vagues m'apaise, je profite de cet instant précieux, invitant la chaude brise marine à raviver me sens alanguis Hanté par le mirage des jours heureux j'attends que naissent au large les échos de la nuit Mes pensées se noient à l'horizon
Only today discovered this group, randomly, while looking for other stuff...first piece was the title track on Kodama, which absolutely floored me, but this piece, especially around the 4:46 mark to just over the 6:00 mark, wow. Just wow. Like Joy Division distilled to 250 times its potency, but married to the most beautiful early Pelican stuff I've never heard...got really emotional hearing this...a truly transporting experience. These guys don't just do incredible things with their music, they literally show you everything we seek from the experience of it.
All Alcest albums gives me a chill down my spine. So many emotions put into a song! Greetings from India. Alcest has a big fan base here in India...and growing.
Love this part: 5:00, it feels so deep. The whole song is pretty good. For some reason, I can imagine myself falling into a crystalline ocean on a full moon night, finding a forgotten world under the sea that has a thousand stories to tell.
This is shoegaze, ambiant, black metal. As if we, in Canada, or Quebec, don't know about black metal, at least we can argue without calling others names. Respect from Metal Noir Québécois fan.
it’s not really Shoegaze. It’s more blackgaze which used shoegaze elements mixed with post metal with black metal thrown in for good measure. Alcest pretty much started the Blackgaze movement.
I Love how much Spirituality are in The Beauty ov ALCESTs Music...It TRANCEnds U in2 ANOTHER WORLD...Like on a BEAUTYFUL L.S.D XPERIENCE 🔥🤘🏻🔥 I HAVE GOOSEBUMPS ALL OVER MY FVCKIN BODY 🤩
J ai découvert alcest avec enjoy the noise (cimer bro !!) Et je ne peut qu'être que remplit de nostalgie en écoutant ces musiques. Merci neige et l homme lave vaisselle
La lumière de juillet s'éteint sur les grèves Et songeur, je laisse mes pensées se perdre Á l'horizon flamboyant. La rumeur des vagues m'apaise, Je profite de cet instant précieux, Invitant la chaude brise marine À raviver mes sens alanguis. Hanté par le mirage des jours heureux J'attends que naissent au large Les échos de la nuit. Mes pensées se noient à l'horizon. Les heures filent, la mer soupire Sous des astres lointains Déposés en une pincée d'or Tremblante sur les houles. Elle ouvre sa danse hypnotique, Et absorbe mon regard décoloré.
Excelente banda! Lindo som, me lembra quando tive minha banda "Dark Winter" quando propomos a tocar o Depressive Black Metal numa linha Ambient, de uma forma reflexiva e contemplativa nos idos tempos de 2006 quando o Uaral estava no auge, era nosso sonho, e o Alcest tornou o realidade, bravo.
I honestly feel sorry for you. May the memories of this song and other songs you loved live through your life. Try to find other ways of appreciating art. Paintings, drawings, dance.
This amazing guy told me to look this song up. He called me the moon goddess. I might not know what this song is saying but know its my favorite song !!!
I'm a big fan of both black metal and shoegaze so when I heard of this thing called blackgaze I instantly left Wikipedia and came here although I don't even speak french. It is a sure thing that this band has its own style and Neige is a very talented musician being able to create such a good mixing of two completely different genres. Nevermind what term people uses to describe what this is, blackgaze sounds cool to me but you can even call it "beautiful music" or "pretty black metal" and it'd still be right.
I went to a festival recently, to see them Gojira.. It was amazing. Their on stage presence is great. The lead singer is so sweet. When he thanked us, I could feel he actually meant it... Beautiful song and amazing band.
I bought my first guitar amp this year (Orange Crush combo 20), Alcest are my biggest inspiration when i practise guitar.🤘🖤 (The amp is perfect for black metal also)
I wish people would stop arguing about the genre of music. Who cares, its just a label anyway! Good music is good music, it doesn't matter what category it fits under.
when i first found this band about 3 years back , this very same video had about 10k -20k views , its nice to see real music get some time in the spotlight (kinda) ...
Ya 200k views is a lot for an indie band like Alcest. Also BlackGaze, which is mix of Black Metal and Shoegaze is fairly new genre. Alcest is a great band and they are very well received for being creators of this genre.
Heyaa!..from Romania!...verry good work..nice...verry nice..it geave me a lot of dreams..things in my mind..you are the best,exxcelent artist!...the best,the best,the. best,the best,the best!🤘🚩💋💖💖💖
Ay Pulu Temmuzun ışığı kıyılardan çekiliyor ve dalgın düşüncelerimin alevli ufukta kaybolmalarına izin veriyorum Dalgaların mırıltısı beni sakinleştiriyor, bu kıymetli anın keyfini çıkarıyorum, sıcak sahil esintisini, tembel duyularımı canlandırması için çağırıyorum. Daha mutlu günlerin yanılsamaları tarafından ele geçirildim, gecenin yankılarının denize ulaşmasını bekliyorum. Düşüncelerim ufukta boğuldu.
I just don't know what to say about this frickin song... the build-up to 3:30 and the subsequent climax is one of my favorite moments in music, of all time.
It feels like I’ve always known this song, that it was just waiting for me to find it. This whole album is PERFECT! Never felt more emotion from any other music. Thank you Alcest, thank you Neige!
enchantingly familiar
For real
i agree

I love this music along with industrial, power, folk metal and well I don't have friends they bring peace to my ears screw main stream music when real art is here.
years and years ago one my girlfriend broke with me, and the only thing healed me - alcest...
Beautifully said.
This is a brilliant comment, and so very true for me pretty much my whole life, even now, being married with little kids...this piece allows you to see the full majesty of that solitude like very very few experiences with other people can give you. Right on.
The band Novembre also has a similar dark, beautiful and introspective quality. Please check them out if you haven't already.
you know the kind of music...which grabs your attention the first few seconds into the song?
You go like "Ok, interesting"
and then the song gets better, you be like "I knew it, this is promising, very nice"

Well, yeah, I've been feeling that during every Alcest song I've been listening to today XD
date me plx :3
restpack loooool sure, why not XD
nannanu date maadi lol
no better words have ever been written/spoken.
i cannot even breathe sometimes hearing this. do not know why

Ну что, получилось вернуться в родное место?
Yes did you
0:00 - 9:52 part is beautiful I can't stop to listening it.
This is the song my son was born too ♡♡♡ it brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it. Absolutely gorgeous ♡♡♡
That's so beautiful..
Les chansons de Alcest procurent des émotions incroyables…tellement génial ce groupe !!
Alcest makes soundtracks for our lives
+p yasch Oh yes :')
Alcest makes America great again.
@@hintaos3872 France not America;D
Lol 😂
3:00 gives me chills. Neige has an incredible voice.
not live..live is really cringy
@@AlessandraFasino666 Really? I've seen them live twice and it's fine?
Zero sings this part!

هاي الاغنية تعرفت عن طريقها على حبيبتي ماريا و راح تبقى الذكرى الوحيدة الي منها وياي احب اكول الها اذا فد يوم شافت التعليق : احبج بكد الكون كله :
واضح كان عندها ذوق راقي
This song will never age. I will always come back here. ♥
This and Falling Snow by Agalloch are my new fave song
good choice.
Both awesome
Oh... Incredible, both songs is very fantastic in metal ... Agalloch and Alcest forever
La lumière de juillet s'eteint sur les grèves et songeur, je laisse mes pensées se perdre à l'horizon flamboyant

Cold and dreamy.
4:00 is one of the saddest moments in the history of music. It's not even dispair, just the immesurable sadness of a world falling apart.
just wanted to stop by and say Thank You Alcest for this song. This is one of the most intense emotional journeys I've sensed.
you are welcome
The most magical arpeggios from 4:00. A perfect soundtrack to a background of wooded hills.
This whole album is insane.. a top album for me in my metal list
Surely one of the best songs of all time. I have no words to explain the beauty of this song. Also one of the most underrated bands ever
Alcest never disappoints 💕 perfect song
every minute of this song is getting better and better...fantastic
No sound has ever evoked such an emotion out of me. They are one of a kind.
All Alcest albums gives me a chill down my spine. So many emotions put into a song! Greetings from India. Alcest has a big fan base here in India...and growing.
Alcest , is the Definition Of perfection on Earth.
Love this part: 5:00, it feels so deep. The whole song is pretty good. For some reason, I can imagine myself falling into a crystalline ocean on a full moon night, finding a forgotten world under the sea that has a thousand stories to tell.
well put
This is one of those Metal songs that sound good on acoustic guitar. I love the unique use of the chords they chose.
Es demasiado hermoso escuchar esto. Maravilla de canción.
I love AF the ending melody ❤🌙 the most beautiful blast beat ever.
I can't be the only one that feels the shivers down my spine when those guitars kick in.
You're not the only one. I also get chills when you touch my tooter
Everyone's talking about their favourite parts yet I don't see one mention of 3:30... for me this is musical perfection
Basically
J'arrive pas a m'empecher de trembler ou de pleurer en écoutant cette chanson c'est dingue
This is shoegaze, ambiant, black metal. As if we, in Canada, or Quebec, don't know about black metal, at least we can argue without calling others names. Respect from Metal Noir Québécois fan.
Shoegaze/Post Black. ♥
This is Blackgaze - fusion of Shoegaze and Atmospheric Black Metal, or early example of Post-Black Metal.
it’s not really Shoegaze. It’s more blackgaze which used shoegaze elements mixed with post metal with black metal thrown in for good measure. Alcest pretty much started the Blackgaze movement.

Bienvenue dans le club
Éric Nees cool story bro
La lumière de juillet s'éteint sur les grèves
Et songeur, je laisse mes pensées se perdre
Á l'horizon flamboyant.
La rumeur des vagues m'apaise,
Je profite de cet instant précieux,
Invitant la chaude brise marine
À raviver mes sens alanguis.
Hanté par le mirage des jours heureux
J'attends que naissent au large
Les échos de la nuit.
Mes pensées se noient à l'horizon.
Les heures filent, la mer soupire
Sous des astres lointains
Déposés en une pincée d'or
Tremblante sur les houles.
Elle ouvre sa danse hypnotique,
Et absorbe mon regard décoloré.
merci
Excelente banda! Lindo som, me lembra quando tive minha banda "Dark Winter" quando propomos a tocar o Depressive Black Metal numa linha Ambient, de uma forma reflexiva e contemplativa nos idos tempos de 2006 quando o Uaral estava no auge, era nosso sonho, e o Alcest tornou o realidade, bravo.
Love this song! All Alcest songs and album are basically perfect, just like their name implies. Much credit to Neige and winterhalter!
+Theopolise Charlesworth Alceste is the name of the main character in Molière's Le Misanthrope
The first time I heard alcest, it was from this album, and I liked this song very much.
i have been listening to this since 2010 almost every single day. really, my favourite song. thank you Alcest! Please come to Singapore soon!
Bukur AL🇦🇱 ///Bellissima IT🇮🇹/// Beautiful GB🇬🇧///
WONDERFUL SOUND !!! 🔥⚜️🔥
feels so rotted but somehow Alcest songs makes my day workout.
I remember that i once loved this song more than any other... but now I'm deaf and can't remember the sound of it... it's a fucking tragedy
:( maybe if you find good enough speakers you could feel the sound of it in your chest
Just remember that its beautiful and be gratefull for can hear this once on your Life.
I honestly feel sorry for you. May the memories of this song and other songs you loved live through your life. Try to find other ways of appreciating art. Paintings, drawings, dance.
Oh damn, I would like to be born deaf, than become like that someday 😐
This is super sad :( Why did you go deaf?
One of the best Alcest tracks !
this song is beautiful... greetings from Brazil
Words can't describe this ❤
This amazing guy told me to look this song up. He called me the moon goddess.
I might not know what this song is saying but know its my favorite song !!!
Marry him
It's been 7 years. I hope he's your husband now
I can't stop listening

Es una canción hermosa, me causa mucha nostalgia escucharla.
Cannot handle how good this is. Halp.
I went to a festival recently, to see them Gojira.. It was amazing. Their on stage presence is great. The lead singer is so sweet. When he thanked us, I could feel he actually meant it... Beautiful song and amazing band.
this music feels like the awakening of god deep inside
so powerful
This album is amazing. So beautiful. Some of the saddest music I've ever heard. Especially the last track.
Como me encanta a partir del minuto 4:00 es maravilloso
I bought my first guitar amp this year (Orange Crush combo 20), Alcest are my biggest inspiration when i practise guitar.🤘🖤
(The amp is perfect for black metal also)
I still remember when I played this chords on my guitar. I still have this album ❤️🎸I will never forget it 😘
I wish people would stop arguing about the genre of music. Who cares, its just a label anyway! Good music is good music, it doesn't matter what category it fits under.
I saw them in Chicago ( Reggies) a while ago great concert.
always a winner live.
I saw them live before I ever heard of them and their songs mad me cry that evening = )
One of the best bands of our time!
muero y revivo con este TEMA
Beautifull music.
Wypowiem się po polsku. Niesamowite, lekkie, bardzo przyjemne i miło do tego czasem wrócić zapominając o bożym świecie.
The best song ever
Just saw these guys last night in Philly. Fantastic show, they killed it.
6:08-7:40 such beautiful dreamy riffs
I always go back to this song when I feel that I can’t take things no more
This whole album never fails at calming and relaxing me when I'm upset
Im drunk and i understand this
Relatable
My maaan

Senda obra maestra, pieza de arte. El lenguaje es imperfecto; no se puede definir a Alcest en una o unas palabras...
Allons, enfants de la patrie! MDR, non j'déconne! Sérieusement, bravo Neige et la marque de lave-vaisselle pour cette performance.
Amazing how these guys used to play Raw Black Metal and now they evolved into this
Their best Album
i love this song so much...
Alcest for our souls
Buenas recetas, simples para mantenerse serena...
Sublime.....
No, it's Alcest.
I'm jk though.Bad joke.
Andromeda don't practice Santeria
Heyaa!..from Romania!...verry good work..nice...verry nice..it geave me a lot of dreams..things in my mind..you are the best,exxcelent artist!...the best,the best,the. best,the best,the best!🤘🚩💋💖💖💖
This is the best band ever!
you have opened my eyes, "pink skittles yoanna", please enlighten us as to the music that touches your soul, so that ours may also be touched.
Alcest masterpiece
Ay Pulu
Temmuzun ışığı kıyılardan çekiliyor ve dalgın düşüncelerimin alevli ufukta kaybolmalarına izin veriyorum
Dalgaların mırıltısı beni sakinleştiriyor, bu kıymetli anın keyfini çıkarıyorum, sıcak sahil esintisini, tembel duyularımı canlandırması için çağırıyorum.
Daha mutlu günlerin yanılsamaları tarafından ele geçirildim, gecenin yankılarının denize ulaşmasını bekliyorum.
Düşüncelerim ufukta boğuldu.
Magnifique!
Cant wait to see them in Greece
4:03 THIS FEELING...
THIS FUCKING FEELING ...
amongst their best songs
Perfection.
3:01 is probably the greatest moment in blackgaze history.
maybe.
Art.
I just don't know what to say about this frickin song... the build-up to 3:30 and the subsequent climax is one of my favorite moments in music, of all time.
LOVELY !!!
Listening to this and pt. 2 of the same name just before sleep
First time i hear this band. Wondeful song, it seems like my bloody valentine and motorpsycho jamming together
Its been ages since i heard this song and now i found the resemblance between this song and what amesoeurs used to be
music of a genius
My favorite... Love it!
Muito bom.Minha favorita
!!!! Fantastique !!!!
