Alcest made fans wait an extra year longer than they normally do between 2016's Kodama and now, but the wait will be over very soon. Alcest has announced a new album called Spiritual Instinct for October 25, which they say is a labor of love. You can read a short statement from the band below, and check out the kickass Førtifem artwork as well.
ALCEST's 6th album is called “Spiritual Instinct“ and will be released on the 25th of October on Nuclear Blast. The recording of “Spiritual Instinct“ has been a long and challenging process, but we feel really proud of it and can't wait to share our new music with all of you. The artwork has been made by the Parisian duo Førtifem and represents a sphinx, as a reference to the symbolism art movement. The sphinx is the ultimate figure of the enigma, which embodies both the spiritual and feral sides inside us.
