Saying that new Alcest really has something to do with black metal is like saying that new Tiamat has something to do with death metal.

Just because they switched genres, doesn't mean their new music has anything to do with the old style.

The guitar tone is quite blackened. To me Alcest sounds like black metal turned absolutely on its head and used for good instead of evil.
