Montreal’s The Besnard Lakes return with their post-rock psych; but this time around, with a lightness and optimism at play. Unique among their furrowed brow peers, The Besnard Lakes are unafraid to marry textured, questing headphone sonics to the honeyed pleasure of radio hits past: the rapture of My Bloody Valentine entwined with the romance of Fleetwood Mac. Imagine dreamy Beach House riding Led Zeppelin dynamics, with unabashedly androgynous vocal harmonies; a melodic yet mountainous sound world. In a crowded leaderboard of their own making, 'The Besnard Lakes are the Ghost Nation' might just be their best album yet; a strive for hope when it is needed most.
FFO: Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Low, Beach House, Slowdive
