I'm going to go out on a limb and claim Alcest's new album is avant-garde. Correct me if I'm wrong.

It'more like shoegaze with some traces of black, but since it wouldn't belong elsewhere I guess it can go here.

Since you're the first, you get to set the precedent. I would say put it here or in Prog. Your choice.

Devil Driver goes where melodic death metal goes. The turds here will say they're nu-metal, but they're not.

I would say their metalcore.

As for Sigh, the new album isn't full on black metal. It wouldn't make my black metal top 5 since the bottom drops out of it as the album goes on.

They are groove metal for me. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groove_metal) Sure the purist will say that that is not a real genre and just made up by the press etc etc, but i think it is a good classification to use.
