Shadow Offering
“Braids find hope in heartbreak on a gloriously intricate fourth outing”
Euphoric Recall
“Braids turn accidents into assets. On their fifth studio album Euphoric Recall, the Montreal-based experimental trio allow the incidentals of human touch to cohabit with cultivated musicianship and exquisite production. A candid chuckle tucked under a satiny groove; the comical screams opening the otherwise solemn ‘Left Right’ – these moments enhance the album’s sense of life and authenticity. In ”
Native Speaker
“Promising and fast-rising group brings a sense of drama and lust and elliptical, unexpected arrangements to indie rock.”
Deep In the Iris
“Braids’ third album Deep in the Iris deals in the intangible memories that remain when a relationship ends. Vivid sensory images dance above the quicksilver music, illustrating that sometimes the clearest thing you can remember from a long-forgotten moment is the way the sun felt on your skin.”
Shadow Offering
“On their fourth album, the Montreal trio begins a new chapter, one robust enough to hold the intense emotions in frontwoman Raphaelle Standell-Preston’s vocals.”
Flourish // Perish
“If Montreal indie rockers Braids' debut Native Speaker drew its power from being the proverbial tip of the iceberg, Flourish // Perish is the iceberg itself, impressive and monolithic. It’s an interesting and daring turn for Braids, retaining the complicated, prog-like arrangements of their past while working within the textures of IDM and minimal techno.”
