What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Phil feeling ecstatic.

So we're still back in time. Earworm are back with a vengeance and more importantly a new album by The Besnard Lakes. We have a CD or a ltd vinyl edn of 100 and it's a bit nice. This is lovely spaced out pop ala Low or Galaxie 500. There's some really great songs on this and the production suits. It's very spacious and sparse sounding but also very complete. Defo one to watch out for.++++++++++

What the label says:

The new album “Are The Dark Horse” is getting rave reviews everywhere and Besnard Lakes are “Ones To Watch” in last months Mojo – “the last time a band sounded this committed to melody & cacophony was Mercury Rev on debut masterpiece “Yerself Is Steam” “  . This Montreal psychedelic pop band could be could be one of the city’s best kept secrets. They’re obviously hip to all things My Bloody Valentine, Brian Wilson and Swell…TheBesnardLakes prove to be experts at serving up the dense swirling sound with an arsenal of instrumentation all fighting for space…A truly beautiful release.. For fans of Sigur Ros,  Godspeed / Constellation, Stereolab, thoughtful and experimaental post-rock. TRACKLISTING : Skyscraper Girls, This Thing, For Spy Turned Musician, Thomasina, You’ve Got To Want To Be A Star, Deep Desultory Dream, Life Rarely Begins With Tungsten Film #1
