    A magical album, triumphant and majestic guitar work is the backbone of this themed album about Princess Mononoke from Studio Ghibli. I was fortunate to see them perform in Live in Sydney. Begging for more already.

    Kodama is one of 2016's most arresting releases. [15 Oct 2016, p.53]

    This album has a cultural and stylistic appeal that has enormous identity, living up to Alcest's most sublime work.

    The 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.
