Our Take

Verging on the melodramatic, Lanterns on the Lake's latest offering, "Versions of Us," is a rollercoaster of emotion wrapped in dreamy melodies and haunting vocals. The band's signature atmospheric soundscapes are present throughout, but there is a newfound sense of urgency and rawness that elevates this album to new heights.

From the ethereal opening track "Every Atom," to the pulsating rhythms of "This Is Not a Photograph," each song takes the listener on a journey through love, loss, and self-discovery. The lyrics are poetic and introspective, painting vivid pictures of heartache and hope against a backdrop of shimmering guitars and lush orchestration.

Lead singer Hazel Wilde's vocals are as mesmerizing as ever, soaring effortlessly over the intricate arrangements with a haunting beauty that sends shivers down the spine. The band's ability to blend indie rock with elements of folk and shoegaze is on full display here, creating a sound that is equal parts ethereal and powerful.

Standout tracks like "Send Me Home" and "Until the Colours Run" showcase the band at their most anthemic, with soaring choruses that are sure to get stuck in your head for days. "Versions of Us" is a cathartic listen that will make you want to dance, cry, and everything in between. Overall, Lanterns on the Lake have delivered a stunning album that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
