Midlake is a 5-piece band from the small town of Denton, Texas. They were discovered by
Simon Raymonde (of
Cocteau Twins fame) and became a part of his
Bella Union label. The song you are listening to is from the band's upcoming release
The Trials of Van Occupanther. You can hear more on their
MySpace page and also get more info from the official
Midlake website.I think
Q music magazine summed it up nicely in a review of the band I found on their site: "Not since
Mercury Rev's
Deserter's Songs has an American band sounded so completely of itself, so off kilter, and quite so bewitching."
