On March 9 The Besnard Lakes will release their new album on Jagjaguwar . "The Besnard Lakes Are The Roaring Night". The label now have made available a track from the album in "Albatross". It's pretty damn great. Quite epic with great female vocals. MP3: Albatross - The Besnard Lakes
In 2007, the Besnard Lakes released the often triumphant The Besnard Lakes Are The Dark Horse , their second album, and one with a self-fulfilling title as the band deservedly received a nomination for that year's Polaris Music Prize, which they then undeservedly lost to Patrick Watson. Since then they've composed and performed the soundtrack for the Mark Ruffalo-directed/Sundance Film Festival accepted indie film Sympathy For Delicious , and banged out a new album and a new titular identity: The Besnard Lakes Are The Roaring Night . It will be [...]

I've definitely been waiting to hear something new from The Besnard Lakes for quite a while now, so it's fantastic to finally get a sneak peak from the new album The Besnard Lakes Are The Roaring Night . The last album was truly epic; just listen to "For Agent 133 if you require proof of this. Listening to the new track "Albatross", it seems to linger towards a sort of a lazy shoegaze (well, it's not really shoegaze at all, even though the band is known to lean that way at [...]
One of my most eagerly anticipated new releases is: The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night (out March 9th on Jagjaguwar).

Buying albums might be ever so passé, but that doesn't mean there still aren't quality new releases worthy of your dinero. Continuing with our theme of 2010 , we have identified 35 albums you'll probably want to buy over the next 365 days. Of course, since only about 1/4 of the albums that will be released in 2010 have actually been announced, this list is certainly heavily biased toward the first few months - though we tried to take into account some of the more realistic possibilities at the end - and subject to sudden change. But based on [...]
Filed under: Movies , Canada , New Releases Besnard Lakes co-founder Jace Lasek is the first to point out that it's been awhile since the Montreal collective has put out an album. While that slump will end enough -- the critically lauded group is set to release 'The Besnard Lakes are the Roaring Night' on March 9 (March 8 in the UK) -- that doesn't seem to ease his mind. "What I've been starting to talk to the rest of the band about is becoming [...]
I just got word that The Besnard Lakes will be releasing their followup album to the rapturous The Besnard Lakes Are the Dark Horse LP in March 2010 via Jagjaguwar. While the psychedelic guitarwork is supposed to be the centerpiece of the Montreal husband/wife's brand of dirge-pop, it's the female harmonies that I can't get enough of.

Montreal's The Besnard Lakes are set to follow-up the breakthrough success of their 2008 album The Besnard Lakes Are the Dark Horse. March 9th will see the release of their new studio album The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night. The album, which is sure to be a collection of dream pop wonders, will be preceded by the single "Albatross" on February 9th. Here's the track listing for the album:
Let me tell you a story. In 2007 some notable things happened. I attended the annual music festival SXSW (the image above is of myself and The Lovely Sparrows' Shawn Jones, taken by Abandoned Love Records/Virgin Of The Birds' Jon Rooney), I grew a mustache, and I met a beautiful girl named Andi. She was waiting for her uncle (Eno of Spoon) at the Capitol Hill Block Party. We hit it off and ditched the after-party to get a sprite (her) and coffee (me) at Denny's in Ballard (sadly no longer there) at 1:30am. I [...]
There is something off center about The Besnard Lakes. They are lush, yet shifty, riding the glorious echo of reverb. The Canadian quartet, led by husband-and-wife duo Olga Goreas and Jace Lasek, make music cloaked in mystery, one hand on a gun, the other on a guitar, slinking into dark spaces and textured hideaways.In March, The Besnard Lakes will release The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night
On March 9, 2010, The Besnard Lakes will return with their new LP, The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night , via Jagjaguwar.

Check out the track listings for both records after the jump. Albatross 12" track list: Side A: "Albatross" Side B: "Four Long Lines" [...]
While St. Nicholas prepares to dominate the rest of this winter wonderland of 2008, Canada is eagerly looking forward to the spring of next year. Montreal's own progressive indie rock aficionados, The Besnard Lakes , have been very busy in their own musical laboratory conjuring up what will be the French Canadian duo's third record. Entitled The Besnard Lakes Are The Roaring Night, guitarist Jace Lasek and his wife Olga Goreas promise an epic tale of bombastic guitar work intertwined with the charm of marvelous wit and over the top pursuit.
