Today The Toronto by way of Halifax art rockers Heaven For Real dropped their second album called Energy Bar via Mint Records.
Energy Bar is a wonderful blend of indie experimental jangle alterna-pop rock album.
About the album by the band:
“Energy Bar” is another blistering example of the band’s jangle-inflected dream-pop that zig-zags between flurrying, dual-pronged guitar lines laid about by the siblings and energetic percussion.
Speaking about the new single, Mark Grundy explains: “‘Can You Believe It?’ is one of the great intangible/rhetorical questions is the asker could be talking about a world-ending climate disaster or a BOGO sale – it is the title track as we felt like it encapsulated a lot of the asking and the feelings associated with this record.”
Recorded with Jonas Bonetta (Evening Hymns) at Port William Sound and mixed by Montreal’s René Wilson (Faith Healer), Energy Bar is a document of the band ten years in, signposting something that’s simultaneously dreamlike and alive.
“The record is an analysis and an ode to the broader feelings of ‘potentiality’ is what could be, what things will mean, where things are going; the sense of wondering, questioning, attempts at growth and self-analysis and acceptance,” says Mark.
