Non-metal recommendations needed! Like - Tenhi, Alcest, Les Discrets, Agalloch

[deathbysushi]

There's a couple not so metal, or not metal at all, bands that I've been enjoying a great deal lately. But these are bands that mostly metal people listen to...which is why this is the right place to ask.

Alcest
Amesoeurs
Les Discrets
Tenhi
Agalloch


Know anything I might like based on these five?

 

[Pyro Stick]

Sounds like you are looking for post black metal/shoegaze/blackgaze. Check out Lantlos and Lunaire

 

[unknown]

Fen, The Morningside, Frail, Altar of Plagues...

 

[Astrum]

I second Fen, I just recently heard Epoch and it was awesome.

 

[Lateralus14]

Listen to some neofolk

Vali - Forlatt
Ulver - Kveldssanger
Nest - Woodsmoke / Trail Of The Unwary
October Falls - Marras

 

[Bubbler Ripper]

You might want to try Dopamine bro(Depressive Black metal/Shoegaze)

 

[Einherjar86]

Woods of Ypres would probably fit the bill:



And I recommend Fen as well.

You might also check out Black Lotus; they're more along the lines of black metal, but they're fantastic, and similar in a lot of respects to what you're looking for:

 

[Bubbler Ripper]

Oooh nice. Black Lotus is some mind-blowing stuff. Nice find bro. They definitely deserve some looking into.




I should probably also mention Caïna. Pretty noteworthy stuff.

[General Zaroff]

If we're posting stuff like Altars Of Plague and Fen, perhaps I should mention Addaura and Ash Borer.

As for Alcest-y stuff, check Old Silver Key when their debut comes out.

 

[Bubbler Ripper]

I'm highly anticipating Old Silver Key's debut. With members from both Alcest and Drudkh, it becomes required listening. It's most likely going to be spectacular.

I also second ash borer.


And... Another video!

[Einherjar86]

Oooh nice. Black Lotus is some mind-blowing stuff. Nice find bro. They definitely deserve some looking into.

Unfortunately they called it quits a few months ago. Their debut record is kind of rough, but Harvest of Seasons is a masterpiece, in my opinion.

 

[Bubbler Ripper]

Well that's a bummer. Their music inspires a feeling of ineffable awe. I'm definitely buying the CD.(For 12 bucks its more than worth it)

 

[Bubbler Ripper]

Fantastic album. Completely instrumental.

 

[Bubbler Ripper]

 

[Thralldom]

You should listen to Dead Can Dance. I found out about them because I heard that Trey Azagthoth would make the other members of Morbid Angel listen to them with him before their shows in the good old days.

fucking Sol Invictus

 

[Bubbler Ripper]

And also Lostime. Ex-Dopamine member. That means it will be awesome.
