French blackgaze pioneers Alcest will unfold their dreamlike soundscapes at Collosseum in Košice! Joining them from LA will be rising act Agriculture, bringing their own distinctive take on ecstatic black metal. Get ready for an evening pulsating with fragile melancholy and pure catharsis.
Led by visionary Neige, Alcest have long transcended the boundaries of the genre they helped define. From their groundbreaking debut Souvenirs d'un autre monde to the landmark Écailles de Lune, they have seamlessly blended blistering black metal with ethereal shoegaze and post-rock. The sonic signature of Neige and Winterhalter is built on powerful melodies and sweeping structures that translate effortlessly to the live stage. In Košice, they will deliver a cross-section of a discography spanning two decades, exploring themes of spirituality and the search for an escape from tangible reality.
California's Agriculture will take on the support slot, making waves on today's scene with their self-described brand of “ecstatic black metal.” Rather than embracing traditional nihilism and misanthropy, they channel intense joy and a torrent of tremolo riffs, a vision clearly showcased on their self-titled EP The Circle Chant. Their frenetic, musically adventurous set will provide a surprisingly fitting contrast to the French masters of melancholy.
