Album: Septembre Et Ses Dernières Pensées
Year: 2010
Country: France
They say you should never judge a book by its cover. But I think the album cover of this album, made by the talented Fursy Teyssier himself, sums up most of it. Some songs are pretty light and catchy, while others are darker and a bit melancholic, therefore the grey scale. The melodies are telling quite a tale by themselves, but the masculine vocals make it even better. Unfortunately I don't know French, if I did I maybe would have an explanation for the big ass crow thing.
It's pretty hard to fit this into one genre, but I would consider it as epic post-rock. Fursy used to be a session member in Alcest, and it's definitely noticeable. Fursy is not copying any of Alcests work though, he started Les Discrets around the same time Alcest started, but haven't released anything until this year.
Song(s) you should listen to: Les Feuilles De L'Olivier
If 10 000 Clydesdale horses galopping in fury through the woods in the middle of a stormy autumn evening would be translated into a song - this would be it.
