The Sound

Since emerging in 2000, Mastodon have defied both sonic and thematic boundaries with an uncategorizable, undeniable, and uncompromising vision unlike anything else in music. This vision manifested over the course of canonical albums such as Leviathan, which landed on Rolling Stone’s coveted The 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time. Following the seminal Crack The Skye [named one of the best albums of 2009 by Time], they earned three consecutive Top 10 debuts on the Billboard Top 200 with The Hunter [2011], Once More ‘Round the Sun [2014], and Emperor of Sand [2017]. Out of six career nominations, they received a GRAMMY® Award in the category of “Best Metal Performance” for “Sultan’s Curse.”

The desire for escape is central to Deafheaven. It’s often about attempting to escape cycles: the repetition of the everyday, things you’ve inherited, situations you don’t want to face, your very DNA. Maybe you can find temporary release through self-medication, day dreams, delusion, and maybe even art. Up to this point, though, something also seemingly central to Deafheaven’s music: the fact that no matter the approach you take, you can’t run away from yourself.

Alcest is a French post-black metal and blackgaze band founded in 1999 in Bagnols-sur-Cèze by Neige. A pioneer of the genre, the project fused the ethereal textures of shoegaze with the intensity of post-rock as early as Souvenirs d’un autre monde (2007), laying the foundations for what would become blackgaze.
