Alcest Live at Hellfest 2022: A Transcendent Blackgaze Experience

Fans and reviewers noted that the performance felt more like an "auditory experience" than a visual one, often leaving the crowd swaying with eyes closed, lost in the "hypnotic effect" of reverb-drenched guitars and Neige’s transition between ethereal cleans and anguished screams.
