    MIDLAKE
    The Trials Of Van Occupanther
    2022 UK reissue
    Gold vinyl

    A long (but fun) day of Christmas shopping ends with an undeniable musical masterpiece.

    This is an astonishing album on every level; a living, breathing, melancholic work of art that, somehow, is still underrated.

    I’d put this against ANY of the great, breathtaking albums of the 2000s. It would stand toe to toe with ANY of them.

    “Roscoe” is one of the great opening tracks of any album EVER; a glorious starting line to an album that just gets better and better as it proceeds.

    I’m still shocked and appalled by the number of hardcore music nerds that don’t know about this gem.

    If you don’t know it… get to.

    Tell em yer Uncle Ape sent you.

    “It was reportedly a very taxing LP to make… but even today the beautiful mysteries remain intact”: Midlake’s The Trials of Van Occupanther is conceptual, esoteric and more prog than indie
    Inspired by Jethro Tull, Fleetwood Mac, Joni Mitchell and Neil Young, the 2006 album weaves a dream around a calculating hermit
