Our Take

STARS OF THE LID Avec Laudenum, where do we even begin? This album is like a warm blanket on a cold winter's night, comforting, soothing, and just a tad bit intoxicating. The duo behind Stars of the Lid have crafted a masterpiece that transcends traditional boundaries of music, weaving a tapestry of sound that is as intricate as it is beguiling.

From the opening notes of "The Atomium" to the haunting strains of "Don't Bother They're Here," Avec Laudenum takes listeners on a journey through a sonic landscape that is as vast and expansive as the night sky. The ambient textures and ethereal melodies create a sense of weightlessness, as if you are floating in a sea of dreams.

The hypnotic quality of the music draws you in, enveloping you in a cocoon of sound that is both immersive and all-encompassing. Each track unfurls like a delicate flower, revealing hidden depths and nuances with each listen. It's the kind of album that demands your attention, inviting you to lose yourself in its hypnotic embrace.

In a world filled with noise and chaos, Stars of the Lid offer a moment of respite, a chance to pause and reflect in the beauty of pure, unadulterated sound. Avec Laudenum is a stunning achievement, a testament to the power of music to transport us to otherworldly realms. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, dim the lights, and let Stars of the Lid take you on a journey to the stars and back. You won't regret it.

Hailing from Austin, Texas, this pair of sonic alchemists have crafted a unique blend of droning, mesmerizing soundscapes that have left audiences in awe. With their dreamy, ethereal compositions, Stars of the Lid have managed to create a sonic world that is both haunting and beautiful. Their music has been described as "magical" and "transcendent" by critics and fans alike, and their ability to evoke a wide range of emotions through their music is truly remarkable. But don't be fooled by their serene sound - these guys have a mischievous side too. Their music can be hypnotic at times, lulling listeners into a trance-like state, only to jolt them awake with sudden bursts of noise and dissonance. It's this element of surprise that keeps fans coming back for more. Stars of the Lid are a rare breed of musicians who manage to create music that is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally affecting. Their ability to tap into the subconscious and draw out buried emotions is truly a gift. So if you're in the mood for some introspective, thought-provoking music that will transport you to another dimension, look no further than Stars of the Lid. This is music that demands your attention, and rewards it tenfold.
