Continuously proving themselves as one of Adelaide’s premier indie-pop exports, The Montrealshave doubled-down on the fun and careening melodies with new single, ‘Lilac, I Think’. Navigating themes of conflict and personal resolution, the band uses their usual bright musical disposition in putting otherwise darker material at the core of their songwriting. A step forward in the band’s creative evolution, ‘Lilac, I Think’ launches The Montreals into exciting new territory as a band.
Following on successful single releases since 2017, The Montreals’ latest is a snapshot of a young band flourishing within the indie-pop realm with great impact. Supporting the likes of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Kingswood, as well as winning more fans at the South Australian leg ofGroovin’ The Moo this year, The Montreals are positioned perfectly to tackle the second half of 2019 and triumph.
Now anticipating a brand new EP release, The Montreals are bristling with excitement over the release of ‘Lilac, I Think’. Drenched in musical texture akin to UK contemporaries includingDayglow and Wallows, the track is laden with bop-worthy sounds. “‘Lilac, I Think’ dabbles with issues of intra-personal and interpersonal conflict, but in a super fun, approachable way. We are all pretty darn good at handling ourselves when things are going well, but how we deal with conflict is really defining. Are you a pacifist? Do you embrace conflict? Do you avoid it entirely? Conflict is a motif that sort of dances through the entire Horror Movies EP.” The Montreals
