' '
,: The Besnard Lakes have passed through death and they're here to :,
: tell the tale. Nearly five years after their last :
:' lightning-tinted volley, the magisterial Montreal psych-rock ':
,: band has sworn off compromise, split with their long-standing :,
: label, and completed a searing, 72-minute suite about the :
:' darkness of death and the light on the other side. ':
,: :,
: Ignited by their love for each other, for playing music :
:' together, the sextet found themselves unspooling the most ':
,: uncompromising recording of their career. Despite all its :,
: grandeur, ...The Last of the Great Thunderstorm Warnings honours :
:' the very essence of punk rock: the notion that a band needs ':
,: only be relevant to itself. At last, the Besnard Lakes have :,
: crafted a continuous long-form suite: nine tracks that could be :
:' listened together as one, like Spiritualized's Lazer Guided ':
,: Melodies or even Dark Side of the Moon, overflowing with melody :,
: and harmony, drone and dazzle, the group's own unique weather. :
:' ':
,: The Besnard Lakes Are The Last of the Great Thunderstorm :,
: Warnings is a double LP. "Near Death" is the title of the first :
:' side. "Death," "After Death," and "Life" follows next. It's ':
,: literally a journey into (and back from) the brink: the story of :,
: the Besnard Lakes' own odyssey but also a remembrance of others, :
:' especially the death of Lasek's father in 2019. Being on your ':
,: deathbed is perhaps the most psychedelic trip you can go on: in :,
: Lasek's father's case, he surfaced from a morphine dream to talk :
:' about "a window" on his blanket, with "a carpenter inside, ':
,: making intricate objects." That experience pervades the album, :,
: catching fire on the song "Christmas Can Wait"; elsewhere the :
:' band pays tribute to the late Mark Hollis and, on "The Father ':
,: of Time Wakes Up," they mourn the death of Prince. :,
