On October 25th, Alcest will once again open the gateways to the otherworldly and release their sixth studio album titled ‘Spiritual Instinct’. Recorded at the French Drudenhaus Studios and written in bursts both during and after a prolonged period of touring in support of 2016’s hugely successful ‘Kodama’, the new album – their first to be released via Nuclear Blast – will lead the blackgaze pioneers into dark soundscapes full of spiritual catharsis.

Frontman Neige comments:
The music video for ‘Protection’ was filmed by director Craig Murray (Mogwai, Blood Red Shoes) and you can watch it here:
