Kerrang!Oct 12, 2016Kodama is one of 2016's most arresting releases. [15 Oct 2016, p.53]
-
Oct 3, 2016Continuing to dominate the fusing of musical styles he unintentionally started, the punchy yet gorgeous qualities of Kodama sees an impressive balance of contrasts, darker and more purposeful than Shelter while evolving triumphantly.
-
Oct 3, 2016This album has a cultural and stylistic appeal that has enormous identity, living up to Alcest's most sublime work.
-
Oct 3, 2016Alcest strive for balance once more here, and for the most part, they achieve it.
-
Oct 3, 2016The kinetic force that was missing on Shelter is a welcome (re)admission. Combined with the intense lyricism and dynamic contrasts, it makes for Alcest's most "complete" album since 2007's Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde.
