Amesoeurs - Amesoeurs

French black metal/shoegaze. Apparently, these guys were around before Alcest's new sound, and comparing them to new Alcest is pretty unfair. They do have some parallels, but both bands are far from sounding like a clone of the other.

Highly reccomended album overall, especially if you do like the whole shoegaze sound, but even if you don't.

Well it's a shame this band split up because I think they were onto something pretty cool. I didn't like this too much at first but it kept growing on me and now i just think it's wonderful. I think the term i would use to describe them is post black pop. Anyways, it's good, so enjoy!
