M83 – "Kim & Jesse" (2008)
2010/03/18
G and I saw M83 open for The Killers over a year ago. I thought they were very different and good for dream pop. Afterwards, about this time of year, a year ago I was listening to M83's "Saturdays = Youth" album quite a bit. It certainly does have a dreamy quality I wish I could hold on to through the day. I'd rather dream away some days than experience the stress and frustration. Reality is always lurking in the shadows of our dreams though.
Dream dressed in blue
It's all they need for now
And forever
Chased by the moon
They shatter their whole peace
With singing
Somebody lurks in the shadows
Somebody whispers
Somebody lurks in the shadows
Yeah yeah yeah

M83 – "We Own The Sky" (2008)
2009/05/06
I didn't know what to think of M83 at first. The music seemed amorphous. They are certainly not your typical group. Their early works have no vocals at all, and it is easy to believe. I saw them in concert opening for "The Killers" and I was impressed. G thought it all kind of sounded like one song at the concert, which may be true, but I have decided I like that song. So if this song interests you, there is a good chance you'll be interested in the rest of the album, and perhaps all of M83's works. Of all their songs I've heard, I like this one best.
PS: I was very impressed with the way the band arranged themselves on the stage. No one member was in front of another. Even the drummer (who was very precise and impressively fast in some songs) was right up at the front. From left to right it was drummer, bass, guitar/keyboards, keyboards, with all of them singing at times except for the drummer. Very cool.
