These are some photos I took at the album launch of a band called Lakes, releasing their LP Winter’s Blade at the Bella Union. From what I’ve read and heard live, it should be a really good album but I would never know because it’s on vinyl and it doesn’t happen to be the fucking 1950′s anymore. There are remnants of early Jesus & Mary Chain drumming and vocals that could be compared to the Tibetan Chant doom style of Om, and all over some pretty dark guitar work interspersed with elements of Voice of the Seven Thunders-esque distortion infused folk. Supporting were Melbourne favourites Fabulous Diamonds.
hi, i’m sean from Lakes, these photos look great, could i see some more?
