Lake Of Myriad Canuck Colourings

Fourth consecutive gig of the week at The Zoo - those guys must be loving the stench of the Masala right about now! - and we have Canadians The Besnard Lakes gracing the stage, supported by Mosman Alder and brilliant local lads Nova Scotia, whose name inadvertantly ties in with the night. This is going to be a lightning show of dense layered textures that provides a near perfect darkness. A darker Arcade Fire with a predilection for dirge, if you will. And trust me - I will...

The Besnard Lakes - ...And This Is What We Call Progress
Nova Scotia - The World Is Not Enough

About

It was early on a Sunday morning at ATP - A Nightmare Before Christmas 2009. After downing a fair few, at 4am we decided to cook a curry. It was during the consumption of this drunkenly delicious breakfast treat that we decided to actually do something about the music we talk about all the time.

So we started a blog – and Sonic Masala was born. Now into its seventh year, the blog has spread out to call both Australia and the UK its home (and the rest of the world), and has expanded to include gigs, festivals and a record label under its black umbrella. Come on, eat the noize.

If an mp3 is up here, it's because we have been talking about it, and think the whole world needs to know more. It's there to give you a little taste. Then, if you like, check out the band live and spend all your hard earned cash on their records. If we've posted up an mp3 of your stuff and you're not too keen on the idea, let us know and we'll happily take it down pronto.
