M83 – Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming (Vinyl 2LP)

Three years in the making, this sixth album from M83 (aka Anthony Gonzalez) is one of 2011’s most highly anticipated releases. Grandiose in scale, Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming is inspired by Smashing Pumpkins’ revered double disc Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.

Produced by Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Beck, NIN, The Mars Volta, Goldfrapp) and including contributions from Brad Laner (Medicine) on guitar, Saturdays=Youth vocalist Morgan Kibby, and guest vocalist Zola Jesus, Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming is a double-album journey that takes us to the horizon and introduces us to new landscapes.

About awakening, craving, and conquering, Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming pushes into new vocal territory for M83. Here we see Anthony Gonzalez test out different ways of singing, ranging from a spectral breathy whisper to a howling scream. Soaring and scraping up against the sky while sharing each uncharted frontier with new collaborators is what M83 does best.
