New Music - M83

M83, the musical project of Anthony Gonzalez, will release Saturdays = Youth on April 14. I’m just now catching up with M83 after recently picking up their critically acclaimed Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts from 2004, and so far I‘m really enjoying the process.

From the new record, “Graveyard Girl” is a slippery, guitar driven synth-pop anthem and perhaps the most accessible song I‘ve heard yet from the band. “Couleurs” is the sprawling, addictive first single - 8 ½ minutes of pulsing beats and pillowy electronics. Granted I’m new to this band, but I’d find it hard to think of fans being disappointed by either of these new songs.
