Watch: Baudelaire Air Music Video For "Lethe"


British alternative/indie rock band Baudelaire have aired the video for their newest single "Lethe".

The song is part of our current playlist and came out on May 13, it is the follow-up to their debut single "Prayers". Grab it here.

Produced by Gavin Monaghan, ‘Lethe’ starts with a mere drum machine, yet it is only a matter of seconds before the industrial ‘wall of sound’ is unleashed from the tracks dark synthesised underbelly. Adding layers of cathartic guitars, Stephen Morris-esc drumming and an iconic bass riff to top it all off. Right from the offset the track has a clear, fresh feel to it – a dissociation from the ‘punk-by-numbers’ approach that many groups seem to take in the modern day. The dance-y element of the track works especially well as ‘Lethe’ seems to have blended the greatest aspects of dark, minimalist synthesised music and the wonders of gloomy post punk into a beautiful array of gritty guitar music.
