There is one album I am looking forward to this year and if you’re like me you’re getting all tied up with anxious feelings. Feelings of fleeting love, the hopeful antithesis of disappointment, and a special kind of wonder. Swan Lake, the super-duper group that’s members produce some of the best Montreal-alt in the history of, well… Montreal-alt, is throwing down what is shaping up to be an album that rivals their first effort Beast Moans. If you’ve never tapped into Swan Lake it is highly recommended by pharmacists, painterers, and altogether well rounded peeps everywhere. Swan Lake is made from two parts Carey Mercer( Frog Eyes) two parts Spencer Krug( Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown) and one and a half parts Dan Bejar (Destroyer, New Pornographers) depending on the strength of the drink. Listen to Swan Lake’s Beast Moans while anticipating their sophomore album Enemy Mine, due March 23rd on our fav label: Jagjaguwar, and prepare yourself for the most incredibly conscious undeniable pop sensibility out and about today.
