Ahh, I'm about to spin Alcest's album "Kodama"
I have been waiting for it to drop and enjoy the singles from it already. I'm not sure if this band fits well with any subforum here, but since they have some metal influences in their music, I'm mentioning Alcest in this one.
This album is inspired by an animated film from Japan called Princess Mononoke created by the talented director Hayao Miyazaki, which I like a lot. Sort of a concept about mankind's relationship to the sacred and the mundane world which is in conflict. The film explores the exploitation of the environment that humans sometimes commit and the repercussions of that lack of respect for it.
