Oh god, they're returning my love for digital art to its full glory. Hours of browsing deviantart will follow.

Am I the only one not impressed by that cover? Seems kinda...bland, especially coming from Neige.

I like it better than Souvenirs (never was a fan of that one's cover) but I do agree that Écailles has a much better one. That one seems to be more... I dunno, delicate, perhaps.

Unlike the album's name, the cover isn't L'ame

Very nice Artwork! Peacock is the symbol of immortality and resurrection in christianity, so the Travels of Soul (Les voyages de l'âme) woul be the transition from life to death... I guess that this will be quite depressive, but it's in the nature of Shoegaze, isn't it lol!

The girl inside me loves it... The one I recently ate that is.
Alcest is turning into that band which could help guys help their gals to get into metal Not that I complain.

Thanks for informing the thread of your "eating" habits there Rod, if you get what I mean.

For me Alcest have traversed too far down the pansy garden to get on board with.

I personally need some pancy music every now and then, it's the trap to get girls to think I'm a sensitive guy or something.
