Besnard Lakes: fresh new wax
- Artists:
- The Besnard Lakes »
Montreal's The Besnard Lakes are to release a new slab o' 12" wax next month, entitled 'Casino Nanaimo'.
The band - whose ...Are The Dark Horse is nominated for this year's Polaris Prize in Canada (like the Mercury, y'dig?) - have also been beavering away at video-making. A film for the track 'For Agent 13', from the aforementioned LP, can be seen by clicking here.
B-side? Oh go on then - the new release, available from September 10 via Jagjaguwar - comes backed by a version of live favourite 'Devastation'. It is proper good.
More information is almost certainly possibly available via the band's MySpace site, which can definitely be found by clicking this link. If you wanna. G'wan.

From the archive
whenever i see this band's name i also think
Barenaked Ladies.
saw them twice at The Great Escape
and made my own hasty getaway-twice. Liked the album, bored to tears by the live show.
oh, and to my knowledge
there is no casino in the town of Nanaimo.
