Harcover 36p Book W/ Bonus Cd |
| | Description: | Kodama by Alcest, released 29 September 2016.
This version of Kodama comes as a 2xCD. - HARCOVER 36P BOOK W/ BONUS CD"Kodama" the fifth album from Blackgaze pioneers, Alcest, marks the French duo's ferocious return to the stylistic maximalism of it's early albums while continuing the band's relentless pursuit for new sounds and fresh ideas. "Kodama" is the Japanese word for 'tree spirit' and 'echo' and from the album's structure and dynamics to it's cinematic sound, "Kodama" indeed 'echoes' Alcest's 2010 classic, "Écailles de Lune". But this is no simple back-to-the-roots album: the band has more punch, rhythm and organic feel than ever before. While clearly influenced by bands like The Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, Dinosaur Jr, Grimes and The Cure, "Kodama" ultimately reveals itself as Alcest's 'Japanese album', drawing substantial inspiration from Japanese art and culture. Originally triggered by Hayao Miyazaki's anime film "Princess Mononoke", "Kodama" picks up on the fate of it's protagonist and, at it's core, deals with the sensation of not belonging; of living in between worlds, be it city and nature or the physical and spiritual one. Duality is also crucial for the visual approach of the album, realized by French graphic designer duo Førtifem. Paying tribute to Japanese illustrators like Takato Yamamoto, the visuals portray contrasting elements like nature/urbanity, youth/death, femininity/animality and combine poetic elements with darker ones that were not present in Alcest's earlier works."Kodama (Ltd.2CD Hardcoverbuch)" is a special limited edition release by the acclaimed French band Alcest, presented in an elegant hardcover book format and featuring two CDs. This album marks a significant chapter in Alcest's discography, blending their signature shoegaze-infused black metal with influences from Japanese culture and mythology?'Kodama' meaning 'tree spirit' in Japanese folklore. The music on this record is both ethereal and powerful, weaving lush soundscapes with dynamic intensity that takes listeners on an immersive journey through emotion and atmosphere. Included bonus material offers fans deeper insight into the creative process behind "Kodama," making this edition a must-have for collectors.
