Alcest

Formed in 1999 by French black metal multi-instrumentalist Neige (who also worked with Peste Noire, Mortifera, and Amesoeurs), Alcest was originally conceived as a solo project. It would eventually take on the form of a full band as Hegnor (also of Peste Noire) and Arguth joined the fray and released a four-track demo entitled Tristesse Hivernale in 1999. This demo was a more straightforward black metal affair, much different from what would happen next.

Anniversary Circle

ANNIVERSARY CIRCLE sounds like LYCIA would jam with KILLING JOKE
somewhere in the 90s, in a town called Twin Peaks.
Alternative / goth / post punk, somwhere between the pulsating vibes of
Joy Division / Killing Joke, the deep melancholy of Lycia represented by
ethereal female vocals and the gloom of Bauhaus.
About the debut album Saturated Feathers (2010)
You’re born, you live and you die in your beds. On each occasion there is cause for celebration or mourning.

The Pinecone Kids

The Pinecone Kids were born this year and with downs syndrome. As a result they go around asking people if they would like to buy pinecones. Straight outta east London gutters they play gritty grungey noisy madness, but also soft soothing sonnets of ambience. Essentially, the Pinecone Kids are a clan, a consortium, and they will infect you with their Pinecone insanity. The Pinecone Kids on Soundcloud
