That Alcest album is one of the best releases of the year. I love the whole atmosphere and feel of the album and even the album cover goes so well with the sound. It's really interesting to see shoegaze influences and black metal influences being mixed together so effortlessly. Screw the black metal purists btw, if they could actually open up their minds to music they will see the beauty in Alcest's music.
I haven't checked out the other two albums you've mentioned but i probably will soon enough.
