Labeled as anything from math to prog to pop but feeling most comfortable in the plain guise of rock, Bend Sinister of Vancouver BC have evolved through numerous styles and absorbed a plethora of influences to become a band so refreshingly original that the struggle to categorize them is a losing battle.

With arresting vocals, half-leashed drumbeats, and lyrics both vivid and vulnerable, Boreal Sons' new sound renounces the piano-structured ballads of their previous live performances in favour of more aggressive and expansive textures offered by vintage rhodes and layers of dense synthesizer. Contrasted episodes of soft intimacy that surge into bold and colourful panorama demonstrate a sort of artistic brinksmanship, in which Boreal Sons showcase their maturity and restraint, understanding the right moments to pull back, hold ground, or push a song to its edge. Boreal Sons spent 2015 writing and recording their second LP and are anticipating its release later in 2016.
