Les Chants de l'Aurore is the seventh studio album by French post black metal band Alcest, released in June 2024 via Nuclear Blast.
Alcest is a French post-black metal band from Bagnols-sur-Cèze, founded and led by Neige (Stéphane Paut). It began in 2000 as a black metal solo project by Neige, then became a trio, but members Aegnor and Argoth left the band following the 2001 release of their first demo, leaving Neige as the sole member. Neige began incorporating elements of shoegaze and post-metal into the project's sound from 2005 onwards and is largely credited with pioneering the fusion genre known as blackgaze. In 2009, drummer Winterhalter from Les Discrets joined Alcest, making the band a duo.
Five years after their last album, Alcest have reconvened with a refreshed perspective on their epoch-altering musical endeavours.
Les Chants de l’Aurore arrives at a tumultuous point in human history, laden with gentle charm and ferocious conviction, and doggedly determined to push Neige’s musical identity ever further into an expansive future. More importantly, perhaps, Les Chants de l’Aurore gives Neige a fresh opportunity to connect with his adoring fan base, armed with some of the most beautiful and mesmerizing music that he has ever written.
In a press release Alcest members Neige & Winterhalter commented:
"Today marks the release of our 7th album, “Les Chants de l’Aurore”. We are so happy to share with you the songs we have been working on during the past four years. It was a challenging album to make but we are really proud of the result and we hope you will like it as much as we do. Thank you so much for your everlasting support, it means everything to us. Much love - Neige & Winterhalter"
This album is a limited edition of 4324 copies on transparent yellow coloured vinyl housed in a single pocket sleeve, pressed in Germany via Nuclear Blast.
