Alcest & Amesoeurs Mix

Alcest is a musical project from Avignon, France. Beginning as a raw black metal act in 1999, Alcest later became a vessel for Neige's "memories of another world" as the band evolved into his solo-project. While Alcest still retains some black metal roots, the music now draws more comparison to other genres such as shoegaze and post-rock.

During Summer 2004, Amesoeurs was formed by Neige, Audrey Sylvain, and Fursy Teyssier with the purpose of creating music that reflects the dark side of the industrial era and modern civilization.
Organic, introspective black metal from France, led by Neige (also in Alcest, Peste Noire, Mortifera, etc.), the music combines the early/mid-90’s black metal sound with moments of post-punk and female vocals.

Skeletonwitch/Toxic Holocaust

Skeletonwitch and Toxic Holocaust are two modern bands that are helping to prove that thrash metal isn't dead. With Beyond the Permafrost released last year and An Overdose of Death... released last week, the thrash revival movement is going strong.

Skeletonwitch is a thrash band that makes sure to coat its sound in a thin layer of permafrost. With black metal-esque vocals and riffs that sound like they came from the frozen north, their style of blackened thrash is relentless yet beautiful. You have to listen for yourself:

1. Upon Black Wings
2. Baptized in Flame
3. Soul Thrashing Black Sorcery

Toxic Holocaust is a one man thrash project that really does give meaning to the term 'thrash revival'. Joel Grind brings an '80s thrash flavor to everything about his 'band'. The sound, the lyrics and even the album cover art. His brand of music, though, is by no means just a cookie cutter effort. It's more like he's from somewhere around the 80s and was cryogenically frozen to help save thrash in the future.

1. Nuke the Cross
2. War is Hell
3. City of a Million Graves
