Alcest - Les Voyages De L'Âme (2012)

This album really is a thing of beauty. Second stage Bloodstock headliners Alcest putting out this fantastic album. Whilst they're headlining a metal festival, their music is actually pretty calm and progressive post-black metal. I think it's an album that would appeal to a wider audience, and it's left me with a dilemma as they are likely to clash with Dio's Disciples at BOA

The first track off of the album:

As good as Alcest are RTM that is frankly a no brainer

Carcass-Heartwork
Nailbomb-Proud To Commit Commercial Suicide
Nailbomb-Point Blank

Slipknot-Antennas To Hell
Headcharger-Slow Motion Disease

Sacred Reich-The American Way
Sacred Reich-Surf Nicaragua

Citizen Swing

Yeah, and? Myles Kennedy is a god

No nothing,just a bit surprised that's all

I don't see why, I've put loads of random stuff that wouldn't be expected from me before. Like when I put Simply Red up

Well if it's like that then i will put something up that no one will be expecting..........

Testament-Dark Roots Of Earth

Yup, I wasn't expecting that. Probably because I've never heard of them.

I'll need to get that. Will want to hear the new stuff before I see them at roughly this time in a fortnight

Tenacious D - The Pick of Destiny
Devin Townsend Project - Addicted
The Black Dahlia Murder - Deflorate
Eric Johnson - Ah Via Musicom
At The Gates - Terminal Spirit Disease
Slash (feat. Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators) - Apocalyptic Love
Avantasia - The Scarecrow
Testament - The Formation of Damnation
Rainbowdragoneyes - The Primordial Booze

Nightingale - Nightfall Overture
Chthonic - Painkiller
Strapping Young Lad - City

I've only ever heard of one of those, although The Smiths are awesome





This third one is fantastic, and ISN'T METAL . Anneke and Danny both have magnificent voices and are playing their acoustic tracks is fantastic. My fave with each singer:

Anneke:


There are no videos of my favourite Danny Cavanagh one off of the album (without being crappy phone films), "Temporary Peace", so I'll have to go with this instead:

Sacred Reich-Heal

Listening to some new stuff today:

Testament The Dark Roots of Earth - Started well, but tailed off into a disappointing end, Awful cover of Powerslave too 6/10

Ihsahn Eremita - Progressive Black Metal mixed with fusions of jazz and also featuring the likes of Devin Townsend and Jeff Loomis? Yes please! 9/10

Corelia Nostalgia EP - It's like Periphery and Between the Buried and Me had a lovechild that is still learning. Could do with a bit more refinement 7/10

Enslaved-Riitiir.........Monumental!!!!!!!

Saw British Sea Power in Manchester last night with GR's favourite person EVER. Despite having a name that would be more suited to an energy company, they were absolutely out of this world. Definitely the best gig I've ever been to, they just lifted the roof off the place.


Table tennis, free ice lollies and a raffle conducted by a ventriloquist, too.

Queensryche-Empire
Queensryche-American Soldier
