Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts (Domestic)

VINYL FORMAT. Comes with CD version of the album! At last! The domestic release of this groundbreaking record. M83 touches upon all genres, from electronica to pop to ambient. Their distinct sound emerged after just one album, and it was both modern and melancholic. The group makes machines seem human, by endowing them with a mysterious and innocent character, one that mirrors the personality of the two band members, Anthony Gonzalez and Nicolas Fromageau. This album is more ambitious than its predecessor, complex yet accessible (thanks to its melodic effectiveness), and possesses a more assertive sound. Anthony and Nicolas have raised the bar -- without foregoing their exceptional sense of melody or losing their ability to communicate sound in a fresh new way. While critics may still occasionally evoke Boards of Canada or My Bloody Valentine, most discuss M83 and the band's two musicians as artists in complete control of their technical tools who create timeless melodies with universal emotions. Let yourself be swept away...resistance is futile.

This domestic vinyl release of "Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts" features the bonus track, "Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts," unavailable on the import.
