Lemuria - Recreational Hate (2017) Lossless

Banquet-label alumni Lemuria are back with a new album, freshly signed to Big Scary Monsters. Irresistibly quirky and delightful indie-punk tunes with poppy elements.

Lemuria changes with the varying and dynamic interests of its constituents, and avoids being pigeon holed at all costs. "Recreational Hate" is, along this avenue, something different. The songs can be traced to a past, present, and future existence of the band, running in every direction, but always coming home to a definitive observational point of reference. "Recreational Hate" is the next book in a fantasy series. It's the surprise 6th act in a never ending performance. It hints of familiarity in a place where the guidelines have been abandoned, and anything is possible.
