Following an extensive festival season last year and having just wrapped a South American tour, the French post black metal two-piece ALCEST have taken some time to reflect on their rich past as one of the world’s most visionary metal acts. Today, the band are proud to announce their ‘Écailles De Lune – 10th Anniversary Tour‘, which had previously been postponed several times. ALCEST’s second studio album was released in March 2010 to widespread acclaim, and the tour will honour this milestone in their impressive discography.
2023 will finally see the band on tour celebrating Ecailles De Lune alongside their special guests The Devil’s Trade.

Alright, it is true that we recently claimed that the billing of Prophecy Fest 2022 was complete. Well, we have good reasons to believe, nobody will complain that we are adding another band to the programme, especially as this concerns a group of dear long-time friends from France: ALCEST!
The French post-black metal or blackgaze traiblazers have released their acclaimed first 5 albums that are each already considered as modern classics via our label. Prophecy Productions are successively reissuing the band’s catalogue, of which the latest was the beautiful 10th Anniversary Edition of “Écailles de Lune” in 2020.
