FLAMME JUMELLE
Les jours défilent
Sans que rien ne change
Mes mots s’éclipsent
Pour peindre le manque incessant
De ton feu qui chavire
Et de l’Ailleurs qui nous attend
Échappée d’une autre heure
J’entends ta voix familière
Noyée dans un violent
Silence dépeuplé
Éloigné de ton coeur
Lors de matins glacés
Figés dans le temps
La nuit m’enserre
Tout oublier
Pour enfin me souvenir
J’erre sans pouvoir
Retrouver mon chemin
M’enfonçant
Dans toujours plus de nuit
Ta main contre la mienne
Les mémoires incandescentes
De ton visage rieur
Et tout pour pouvoir les revivre

Alcest soothes us when the world is in flames. Thank you.
English translation The days go by Nothing changes My words slip away To paint the incessant lack Of your capsizing fire And the Elsewhere that awaits us Escape from another hour I hear your familiar voice Drowned in a violent Depopulated Silence Away from your heart On icy mornings Frozen in time The night surrounds me Forget it all
This is one of the most beautiful things I've heard in a long time
They never cease to impress. It's a shame is not well known because of the language
That chorus riff is gonna be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. In a good way.
*I'm completely speechless by just how beautiful this is.*
It's Alcest, it's what Neige does :)

💚💚🤘🤘🤘💚💚
I have no words for this but that grin from ear to ear
I hope you find yourself someone that looks at you the same way Alina looks at Coralie at 2:32
❤
My favorite 🤩 part of this song, thanks to referring to it
Remembering the times when I was 18, discovering Alcest, now turning 31, the magic of Neige's music always remains the same!
Sometimes I listen to Alcest and the only thing I can think is "HOW ?", how can they create masterpieces like this ?!!!!
This is pure Synergy. The choreography adds new dimension to the music which is a masterpiece by itself. Truly a heart-opening experience, it’s been years since I have encountered something this powerful. Thank you so much for this.
Thank you for making me feel like my soul was healing for 5 minutes and 22 seconds, I can't wait for the whole album.
Alcest me ha ayudado mucho en mis momentos de crisis. Y espero que ha muchos que sienten la música de esta banda también 🤎🫂
Comparto esto. Ya más de una década con su compañía.
+1000 su música me tiene sanado malos momentos!! Más de 12 años que los escucho
Cada que escucho sus canciones me hace sentir que la vida es más hermosa y que hay que disfrutarla. Es música terapéutica para mi🙏 espero que está banda siga sacando canciones así de bellas que están en un nivel distinto al resto.
It's a tough time for me to keep myself alive but i think i've to live once more for alcest's music art 😇🙏🏿
Hope you find peace and feel the warmth of a hug like the one in this wonderful choreography... Keep going and stay safe, there's still love ❤
@@mamoskThank you 🙏🏿
you can definitely do it. better times do come around eventually, often in a way one doesn't expect them too, life is unpredictable so you always have to just try to go on, I believe in you! I hope you have a good day and week and month and year and life
I've been there many times and truthfully I think I'm there daily but the sky is just too beautiful not to stare it daily... Keep the fight fighting 💚❣️🤘💚❣️
Fine what's pure and don't let go
This music video evokes a sense of conflict, love and passion.. fighting our demons and struggling but always holding onto the ones we love, that is humanity. Not social media and politics and everything else distracting us. It's pure and what makes us human, the struggle, the love, feeling alive..
Alcest, le seul groupe qui mène le métal à la sensibilité spirituelle, et les personnes qui vivent des expériences spirituelles au métal. 😮 Flamme Jumelle écrit au singulier, trace de l'unité que tu y vis Neige, va toucher le cœur de bien plus de personnes que le public originel d'Alcest. Merci à ces danseuses magiques qui incarnent tout le parcours que l'on vit dans ce lien. Les étapes, les périodes, je les vois sauter d'une vie à une autre à travers les différentes paysages qui suivent le fil conducteur de leur âme. Tout y est, l'omniprésence absente, les moments d'obsession, d'être comme hanté par l'Autre. Bravo, merci, gratitude. 🙏
Tu as tout dit !
@@reinaroswel2992 tu es en lien FJ aussi ?
@@veroniquewagner-astrologue oui et je suis en plein travaille de la complétude. 😅
@@reinaroswel2992 tout pareil 😉 j'en parle un peu sur ma chaîne d'ailleurs
C'est loin d'être le seul groupe mais bon... le métal a toujours été spirituel
I have never seen such a mesmerizing video. The dancing was so deeply moving performed. It fulfilled my heart and made my day better. Thank you for this as a metal head :D .
Alcest are bring sound of beautiful moment from the past we can't turn back time.
Today is my wife birthday, and you guys give us this beautiful gift! Thank you for making such great work in all these years
Happy birthday to your wife!
Hbd 🎉🎉
man i love alcest
It's crazy to see how far Alcest have come and see people who are just discovering them now :)
En voyant ce clip, on peut se demander si c'est la danse qui est mise au service de la musique ou bien si c'est la musique qui est mise au service de la danse tant la chorégraphie de ces deux danseuses colle à la perfection à la musique et ce mélange nous emporte dans ce tourbillon d'attraction et de répulsion, à l'image de la vie. Bravo Alceste, bravo Coralie et Alina et merci Nuclear Blast pour les faire venir jusqu'à nous !
Je vous en prie)
140,000 views, and at least half of them are me. Best song to date.
Not their best song, but I’d put it in my top 5 for now. It really is incredible. Anyone I show it to I say you have to watch the video just because of how much it adds to the overall experience
What an amazing song. Goosebumps ! This is a painting with music instead of paint
Pas de mot face à ces mots ... juste un cri, intense, rejoignant l'unité de ceux qui ont été habités par cette traversée . ❤🔥Et demain, découvrir enfin le morceau 💜
I had a rough day today and discovered this song. I just sat here crying while listening to it for five minutes. Thank you 🖤.
... Yes just crying and that's all ... Merci Neige & co, on vous aime !!!
Crying is pure
Alcest never misses, forever one of my favorite bands. When I was 14 they had a few snippets of Souvenirs D’un Autre Monde up on MySpace. I remember ripping them and listening to them everyday and grabbed the album as soon as preorders went up. Today at 31 years old, Alcest still hits the spot and I will continue to support them for as long as they’re around. This track has been on repeat all damn day!
I come from the same place, this fckg holy Myspace which turned my emotions upside down... I was 16 or 17 years old. It was lile discovering a whole new world. I knew so few things about music and about everything else. I was wondering if Alcest would ever come up whith a second album, if they would play live... What a journey to here and now, how unpredictable... Life, sure, is short.
both the music and choreography are gorgeous. thank you for this
Every new ALCEST Record sounds so fresh and complete different than the last. They have now Fear from the Future. I love this. And they have the most open minded Heart for create new iconic Records for Eternity. 🌬️
I really couldn’t agree more. Neige retains his own style more than enough that he manages to not offend most fans. The biggest part of this is that the dude is a legit musical genius, and it’s just legitimately hard to hate on such well crafted music. Most of us are here starting as black metal fans, but Alcest is barely black metal anymore. Hell, at least half of Alcest bares no resemblance to black metal. And it’s not like Neige shies away from black metal. He just does whatever the fuck he wants to do in that moment of time. I don’t think he even goes into it with any premeditated course. He just does what and where he’s at. Neige is easily in my top 5 musicians of all time. There’s pieces I like less than others, but overall he has never done wrong. There is nothing more exciting to me in the music world than new music from Neige/Alcest.
Another Alcest release, another masterpiece to no one's surprise.
This is the power of immortality, true souls last forever as his music cause isnt just music it's endless emotion .
That burst into synced dancing at 2:41 is so powerful. The whole video is absolutely beautiful and fits the music like a glove. Props to the two dancers and the cutter as the transitions between the settings and the overall composition is also very well done. No need to mention that the music of Alcest is not the icing on the cake, but the whole bakery.
I love this song, but also the landscape, the photography, the dance, all of its art. It's amazing! 🌌
Song is actually pretty simple, just pushing the main riff makes it catchy, but the video just flows in an incredible way. Amazing art work
It doesn't matter how complex or not it is. What matters to me is everything they transmit, it's magic. 
This one has some very strong "Shelter" vibes (both the song and the choreography of the clip). I know I'm in the minority, but I really like the dreamy atmosphere of that album and still listen to it frequently. I applaud their decision to add some of those elements to the new release, though I'm not sure whether it's intentional. Great work.
It does and I appreciate the more dynamic drumming akin to Kodama mixed in.
While I consider some songs on Shelter being on the weaker side, there is a reason Alcest play Delivrance as an outro for all of their shows. It is just magical.
What a song, big expectations on the next album
Moved to tears at the end, simply beautiful.
Dans cette vidéo, il y a cette référence que le masculin (Yang) porte sa féminine (Yin) dans le parcours initiatique des Flammes Jumelles. Un clin d'oeil aussi à cette fameuse Danse des Flammes Jumelles : un ballet des âmes qui s'attirent comme des aimants et qui se rejettent à chaque apparition des peurs et des souffrances (les 5 blessures de l'âme) lors des reconnexions d'âmes ou retrouvailles, par effets miroirs... Le fil rouge qui les lie ne peut se rompre ! Les Flammes Jumelles (Twin Flames/Cosmic Twins) ont une mission divine à accomplir sur terre en ces temps de grands changements depuis 2012 (éveil et expansion des consciences, qui passent inévitablement par la nuit noire de l'âme). Les Flammes Jumelles Originelles, une fois réunies et leurs âmes fusionnées, grâce à la sexualité sacrée, trouveront la paix intérieure, leurs âmes prisonnières du cycle des réincarnations sur Terre seront libérées. Un chemin de Foi vers la Vie éternelle. Une manifestation de l'esprit Saint et de l'Amour Divin dans nos corps/âme/esprit.
Whaou 🕉🙏
Tu as tout dit 🙏❤️🔥🔥
I will be here for the premiere! The last album helped me get through a week-long stay in hospital isolation, struggling to survive through COVID. Now I've got another major crisis in my life, and this new album is sure to be there for me, like a good friend's comforting words. 💙
Blame Brandon🤦♂️
Alcest therapy is woooorking 💖
This music truly makes me smile 😁😁😁 That's something is hard to do
I had the great pleasure and honor of working on this music video with Kendy Ty and the dancers : something tainted with nostalgia, melancholy and onirism to go along with the beautiful melody and lyrics carried by this song. I'm really happy for this release and I sincerely hope you will enjoy it as much as I did. Thanks a lot to Neige and to Alcest for your trust on this beautiful project ⛰🌄
Do you remember the names of the performers? It's a beautiful work of art.
@@Carnelust Thank you so much ! Sure, they are Coralie Bénard and Alina Lugovskaya :)
The landscapes are beautiful 💖
Esperaba algo más,pésimo trabajo No me gustó el clip
The "dance" is fucking ugly. Everything on this is stupid. Very lame.
Encore une magnifique chanson, comme d'habitude. Vous êtes tellement talentueux... Je vous adore !!!
Thank You Alcest for soothing my life in a world of chaos inside life. Someday I want to thank You personally for helping me going through the tragic events of life peacefully ❤️❤️❤️
Alcest has transcended music successfully.
Indeed, my friend. Indeed.
ありがとうございますありがとうございます。こんな美しい曲と同じ時に生きているとはなぁ 生きてて良かった
by far, best music video ive ever seen.
I've never heard of this band, much less seen this video. And now its my favorite music video of all time and I'm going to get the album on spotify. Thank you
Their music has always been very unique and magical, I recommend you to listen to all their previous records while waiting for this new album
The last 1 minutes and 24 seconds gave me goosebumps. Franchement BRAVO!
Alcest, is music from another world, a demonic combination of Black Metal and the angelic side of Shoegaze. ✨
The failed pinky swear attempt at 2:19 really resonated with me.
This is so sapphic I love it!!!! Tysm Neige!
Exactly what I thought. Makes me love Alcest even more 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈❤
Alcest é a banda mais bonita que já ouvi, se você é BR deixa seu like aqui pra eu não me sentir sozinho
Tamo junto
A música deles é especial.
A perfect video for a perfect song. Now I like it even more
Haunting and uplifting at the same time….
I think I fell in love with both of them! So beautiful! I'm crying. 😭
The Dancing IS superb..and the song ❤
Another work of art from the almighty Alcest. This is shaping up to be quite the album!
Ah damn it, here comes the tears...
Danke sehr. Wieder mal ein mega song🙏😇 ich liebe ihn😊
When I have no idea what the lyrics are about, yet I am here listening to the music and watching the video in tears :')
It means Twin Flame
Same, I feel like my heart was ripped open and I do not understand one bit of the lyrics. Powerful stuff right here
I speak French and I never been able to understand what he said, few words at best 😅 absolutely beautiful music indeed, but probably the worst elocution ever
@@JonathanGarcia-iu3ln There's this one interview when Neige said he doesn't articulate on purpose when he's singing the lyrics coz he doesn't want people to understand the lyrics. For what I understand, maybe he wants us to not focus on the lyrics, but to hear the vocals the same way we hear the other instruments. For someone who doesn't speak french, I like how their songs give a lot of meaning already even before I try to read the lyrics. 🧡
@@JonathanGarcia-iu3lnsame for me !
This Song its so beautiful, the video of the landscape fantastic. The dancers giving us an art form I truly felt melancholic listening to it. I know my friend Omar would have loved this. 🖤 R.I.P. This song reminds me of the good times we had.
Alcest just brighted up my 2024, I can forget and get lost in this beauty.
Perfect song; made me feel so many feels. Great video too, Alina is so beautiful!
Reminds me of Big Country. Great stuff.
Gracias por tanto, los quiero mucho. Ojalá vengan otra vez a México. Les amamos aquí.
My heart needed this. Thank you. 🥹
This was the last thing I expected from a Nuclear Blast video suggestion, but I like it! Music was great and the video was very well made :)
Magnificent song, brilliant on all levels.
Как глоток всежего воздуха! Не пропадайте мужики! Жду альбом)
What an incredible album that awaits us❤❤
Simplemente Sublime. Parece que Alcest habla aquello que uno no puede expresar.. Gracias, chicos ✨️
Master piece
Que lindo. 💜🖤✨A cada movimiento le pongo un sentimiento. Se alejan, se buscan, se aman, se odian, uno se vuelve loco, la otra disfruta con otros, los celos llegan, sufren, se extrañan, regresan...viven.
🥺🥺🥺my heart shivers every time that alcest releases a new song 🖤
This is one of the best pieces of art I have ever seen. The visual companion to such beautiful music is stunning. Alcest really gets the metalheads feeling!
🪔🌹❤️🔥 parfumed french romantica 🌠♥️🌌
Excellent ! MAGIQUE ! Merci ALCEST !!! j'ai hâte de vous voir à l'Olympia !!!🤘
Wow this is really good, I only knew this band by name but this song blew me away.
Neige is the first guy that managed to combine Metal with dance. The best thing? It is dance from their souls and such a beautiful music. Bravo Alcest once again!
so simple, but so emotional! The video makes you laugh and cry almost simultaneously
Me encanta éste grupo... Gracias Neige por crear algo tan bello y grandioso capaz de sanar el alma. 💜
Beautiful. The music, the video, the lyrics, everything.
Simply beautiful and brilliant
Crying and i don't know why, beautiful!
Oh my word! Such a fitting video to this extraordinary song! As always, unbelievably beautiful and touching ❤🔥
These first singles have already taken me on an emotional journey. Thank you Alcest for being a travel companion through the times - since 2007 with Souvenirs. And it seems you have not lost the touch, the inspiration at all. You deserve all the love you get from fans, and more.
Alcest is a superbe band i love them
Its like watching kung-fu for lovers
Thank you for always giving us reasons to stay 🙏💫✨
This video enhances the song
Beautiful landscapes, birds, japanese influence, ancient ruins, contemporary dance, cute girls, emotions, Neige singing in both clean and pure and painfully screaming. This video contains everything, I love and why Alcest is the best musical match to my personality.
Beautiful
that guitar in the beginning is addictive
Parece que el único señor salido del black metal con integridad moral y el que se llama como una marca de lavavajillas lo han vuelto a hacer. 10/10, temazo.
Alcest heals my soul ❤ love you guys and this beautiful video. Thank you for the music
This is so beautiful 😭
Listening to this since it’s release everyday . Thank you Alcest for this.. heart just explodes with so much beauty❤❤❤
the best my favorite band❤️💯
Un groupe qui représente parfaitement la musique Française et avec de très belles mélodies
4:09 that move was good :o
Alcest, so magnificent and emotional. Très émouvant !
Unmmmm yeah. I know I’m just a regular die hard Alcest fan that eagerly awaits for what he does next, but this checked all the boxes for me within the first minute and a half. Neige… I salute you.
Excellent. Vivement l'album entier.
É magnífico demais, não canso de ver, arrepio do começo meio e fim, 😢😢❤❤❤❤
