Our Take

Ah, The Besnard Lakes. The Canadian dream-pop darlings have returned with their latest offering, "A Coliseum Complex Museum". This album is a swirling, psychedelic journey through time and space, with lush layers of shimmering guitars and ethereal vocals that will transport you to another dimension.

From the moment the opening track hits your eardrums, you'll be hooked. The Besnard Lakes have a knack for crafting songs that are both mysterious and mesmerizing, drawing you in with their hypnotic melodies and otherworldly soundscapes.

Lead singer Jace Lasek's vocals soar above the music, adding an extra layer of ethereal beauty to the already mesmerizing mix. The band's signature dreamy sound is in full force on this album, with each track building to a crescendo of swirling guitars and haunting harmonies that will leave you breathless.

But don't be fooled by the dreamy exterior - there's a dark underbelly to these songs that adds an unexpected edge to the proceedings. The Besnard Lakes are not afraid to explore the shadows, venturing into the depths of their own psyches to uncover the hidden depths within.

In conclusion, "A Coliseum Complex Museum" is a triumph for The Besnard Lakes, showcasing their masterful songwriting and their ability to create a fully immersive sonic experience. So sit back, relax, and let the music wash over you - you won't regret it.

About the artist

The Besnard Lakes

Ah, Besnard Lakes. The Canadian band that can make you feel like you're floating in a dream while rocking out at the same time. Comprised of husband and wife duo Jace Lasek and Olga Goreas, along with a rotating cast of talented musicians, this group has been churning out ethereal psych-pop gems for over a decade. Their sound is a glorious mishmash of shoegaze, prog rock, and classic pop sensibilities, with lush melodies and swirling guitars that transport you to another world. Lasek's haunting vocals often float over the dense sonic landscapes like a ghost whispering secrets in your ear. Besnard Lakes have a knack for creating epic, cinematic soundscapes that draw you in and refuse to let go. Their music is like a kaleidoscope of sound, constantly shifting and evolving with each listen. It's no wonder they've been compared to the likes of Pink Floyd and The Flaming Lips. But don't let their dreamy sound fool you - Besnard Lakes know how to rock out with the best of them. Their live shows are a sight to behold, with blistering guitar solos and thunderous drums that will have you shaking in your boots. In a world where music seems to be getting more and more formulaic, Besnard Lakes are a breath of fresh air. So do yourself a favor and dive into their discography - you won't be disappointed.
