Wowowowwowow, the album 'Melancholie²' has been out for months and I can't believe I haven't picked up on it sooner.

For anyone now joining the Wolves in the Throne Room backlash as the new album reveals itself to be pretty lame, or waiting for something new from Alcest, or well basically anyone that likes pretty, epic music with a misanthropic German dude screaming over the top of it, this is perilously wonderful: http://www.myspace.com/thestarsaredeadnow
