Besnard Lakes share "The Plain Moon" from new LP

Besnard Lakes

Montreal’s Besnard Lakes have shared a second track from their upcoming album A Coliseum Complex Museum. “The Plain Moon” contains many of the signature Besnard elements: a wall of guitars, unearthly harmonies and a general widescreen rock vibe. As I’ve said before, it can be hard not to use the word “epic” when talking about Besnard Lakes and they have always given the term a good name (if you ask me, I know you didn’t.) Mainly though, it sounds like Besnard Lakes — which is to say, awesome. This one’s a little more upbeat that “A Golden Lion,” and you can check it out below.

A Coliseum Complex Museum is out January 22 via Jagjaguwar. The band have a few live dates scheduled for 2016, though none currently in the U.S. All are listed below.
