Alcest saved my life. Alcest moved my heart and gave me a new direction in life. And when I lost everything, Alcest was all I had. It was my only peace.
i keep listening to this after my fiancee passed away a week ago... we supposed to get married on march 5th next year.... this beautiful song has helped me get through the worst part of letting go.... somehow the melodies gives me the strength to keep on going...
+ifni isauria I'm sorry for your loss. I thought that my pain cut deep. It does. But you lost someone who loved you 'til their last breath. Take joy in that.
Hello people around the world. My discovery of Alcest has been one of the most beautiful things in my life till now. I am glad that I found this band, this album, such people who, like me, love Alcest. I want to say that, I was having a bad day. Got thrashed by my prof. Broke my favorite earphone accidentally. Lost money. Cycle was punctured. PC got affected by virus. But in the end, when the day ended and I spoke to Mom, my girlfriend and heard Alcest; all the pain alleviated. And, that's what matters. When you have great people in your life, no matter how depressed, how broke, how lost you are; they will help you and heal you. So will this music. I wish you a great day ahead. I love this album. Never lose hope. Peace!

Some people asked for the lyrics of the song but actually this one does not have any. I am using my « invented language » which is made from spontaneous/improvised sounds without any specific meaning. Since the very beginning of Alcest, ¼ of our songs contain this language and it’s a way for me to sing without having to be restricted by the signification and sounds of a « real » language. « Les Iris », « Kodama », « Délivrance » and many others have been written in the same way." Yes brother.
Tête en arrière je m'abandonne Et dans l'extase inspire Les vents légers du bord de mer Tête renversée je lâche prise Et accueille le jour naissant Le cortège délié des formes Cristallisées dans le ciel Les monde bleus Les vagues à l'envers L'océan et l'éther se font face Communiquant silencieusement Sans que nous les pieds sur terre Ne les comprenions vraiment
Heard this one few days after my grandpa passed away. I just saw them live a week ago, and couldn't stand letting a tear go. Today would be his birthday... Alcest creates melodies for healing and remembering. I am thankful that Alcest exists.
Its the best Alcest song ever after Percées de Lumiére. This band is simply the best ever.... I dont understand French,but it helps me strengthen up whenever I feel down. :)
Esta canción sigue dándome todo, cuando siento que estoy perdido la escucho y vuelvo a sentir el masaje en el corazón que me mantiene con vida. Gracias
and yeas, i found out for the first time Alcest after that a guy that i met virtually on chatroulette suggested me to listen to them. I would not ever expect that such a "superficial" meeting would make me discover coincidencly (altough i dont believe in coincidence) such a mystic dimension. Somehow we lost our contact long time ago for his decision and ,of course, there's nothing i can do, but only to respect his choice and let him go. well ,for the first time i understood that i shouldnt feel weak or ashame when im in love, cause it forces me at one point to be honest with my feelings and to accept situation i cannot control ... now i am only living days where i pray the whole time that i can be able to love myself one day.. i hope this will happen just now, in this moment. I miss you.
I know the feeling when we stumble upon faces and memories, hoping that you would see them again someday, being them the only hope which gave us the feeling of being loved. I feel you. But I suggest you should move on, his part in your life is over and your part in your life starts. Cry, cry as much as you can, and then, smile, smile forever.
Thankyou for your words. It touched me always when i see somebody writing for me to share the feelings. And yes you are right, i think at this point i should let myself open to the new things that want to come to my life.. i wish you good evening, my friend :)
Délivrance and Voix Sereines stand out from the album for me. They convey such contrasting emotions and pictures. Délivrance gives me a melancholic and transient feeling, while Voix Sereines conveys a story with ups and downs and a general feeling of peacefulness and calmness.
Maybe that's why I love Alcest so much. They convey a very wide range of emotions. Like Alcest, I have both black metal and the dreamy shoegaze in me...
Mi mediocre traducción al español, basada en los "lyrics" que encontré por ahí. "Con la cabeza hacia atrás me aflojo Y cautivado inspiro El suave viento de la playa. Con la cabeza inclinada hacia atrás me dejo ir Y recibo el día que nace El delineado cortejo de las formas Cristalizadas en el cielo. Los mundos azules Las olas al revés. El océano y el éter se hacen de frente Comunicándose silenciosamente Sin que nuestros pies sobre tierra Los comprendan verdaderamente"
Beautiful, also this one is nice in that it's kind of the final link to their past - it has that heavy riff but the overall song is still a gentle and soft one
Con esta canción te di a conocer a Alcest, recuerdo la plática a altas horas de la noche cuando te mencioné por primera vez de Alcest, y justamente te compartí esta canción, se que aún me recuerdas al oírla...
Ayrıldıktan 4.5 sene sonra mesaj atıp ona seneler önce verdiğim şıpsevdi kağıdının fotoğrafını attım. Hala cüzdanımda saklıyorum dedim. Bak dedim bu benim en sevdiğim şarkı. Dinledi mi acaba?
+Mikołaj Śliwiński Well actually it's still Alcest and it's not gay at all. If you mean it is completely different and you don't like it, then do not watch it ? And think for a little a song CANNOT be gay. Just say it is 'so ridiculous' or 'so calm'. Because it is calm. Artists evolve and so do their music. In my opinion, the whole Shelter album is as good as the others, if not better. Thanks.
+Amandine Schatz thanks for your answer. I like gay music. I just said that should have changed name because it's confusing. It's natural that artists evolve, but they can name their projects accordingly.
+Mikołaj Śliwiński But how can you say a song is gay? Which 'gay' do you mean? the happy gay or the homosexual gay? I'm sorry it's starting to confuse me.
