Braids

"Freund"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Aug 6, 2013

Montreal trio Braids are letting listeners check out another Flourish//Perish track ahead of the LP's August 20 street date by unveiling the set's "Freund."

The song explores the band's transition to electronic music, with a stream of shivery new-age synth sounds undulating around skittered percussive beats. Singer Raphaelle Standell-Preston, meanwhile, supplies humanistic touches as she gently introduces multiple vocal harmonies into the mix by song's end.

You can check out the heady, though chill new number down below.

As previously reported, Flourish//Perish arrives through Flemish Eye/Arbutus/Full Time Hobby, and will be supported by a series of global dates.
