the besnard lakes, the montreal collective fronted by husband-and-wife duo olga goreas and jace lasek, have returned, crafting a majestic, sprawling vision of guitar bombast and captivating pop experiments. 'the besnard lakes are the roaring night' is a twisting chronicle of spies, double agents, novelists and aspiring rock gods turned violent. loyalty, dishonour, love, and hatred are all seen through the eyes of two spies, communicating through short wave in code and fighting a war that may or may not be real. 'the besnard lakes are the roaring night' was recorded at lasek's breakglass studios with a vintage 1968 neve germanium mixing console used to record portions of led zeppelin's 'physical graffiti'. 'the besnard lakes are the roaring night' is a dark bliss-out that folds the eerie guitar epics of the band's breakthrough, the besnard lakes are the dark horse, into a wall of affected drones and atmospherics. the toughened immediacy and grit that gives the form a much-needed shove over the cliffs makes for a haunting, provocative swan dive into the crushing tide.
