When music takes you away from your normal state of mind, and puts you into a new world, then it’s doing a good job. That’s exactly what Montreal’s Young Galaxy have done with their magical song “Peripheral Visionaries”. It’s taken from their new album Shapeshifting, which will be released on February 8th via Paper Bag Records.
I found it via the always great Said The Gramophone, and am in love. I’ve been stressed out lately, and desperately needed something to calm my nerves. “Peripheral Visionaries” does just that. It’s a magical journey into the world of Young Galaxy. I don’t think I ever want to leave this world. Ever. It makes sense that people call them “dream pop”. As fitting of a title as I can think of.
Their calm, focused vocals hold your hand through waves off cool bass groves and clean, confident, guitar riffs. It will put you in a state of bliss, surely one of the best moments of 2010.
