I know I always say this around the forums, but seriously...I'm speechless. Words cannot 
begin to describe the feelings that emerge from me when I listen to the music of Alcest. They have quickly become one of my favourite bands right now and will surely be purchasing the upcoming album set for Summertime. The first track, at 1:53, is some of the most inspirational music I have heard...it's so soothing and magical. Just as they describe it, I found myself envisioning the beauty of the earth when embracing the music to its full capacity. I swear I felt a breeze blow right past me...felt the grass sway at my knees and heard the rustling of the leaves in the trees while breathing in the warm air. It's like the soundtrack to nature. So pure, emotional and powerful. The music feels like it breathes life somehow, that's the best way I can describe it. Wow, I honestly have to thank my bro for finding out about Amesoeurs, which he recommended to my buddy Sadguru here at the forums, who THEN recommended me Alcest, which is connected to the band Amesoeurs, haha....
...speaking of Amesoeurs, it is perhaps the best black metal I have ever heard. And it's by far not your conventional Black Metal, either. It's so, so fucking good I just can't take it. Man, I'm like a little kid when I get excited about music, and this is something to get excited about, I assure you. I heard the entire EP (which I haven't bought yet) which only has 3 tracks on it, so basically you already have a third of the album on myspace haha. Beautiful name, beautiful logo, beautiful music.
Go France! Man, they have some great bands emerging from there.

Well, I thought I'd bring these guys to attention here as I know many have great taste in music around these parts. I am hoping these guys will arouse the kind of emotions in your hearts as they do with me. God I love these guys!
