Montréal-based psych pop outfit Wizaard — currently, Marie Hèléne Coutu and Jean-Nicholas Doss — are a mainstay of their city’s psychedelic, Anglophone and bilingual music scenes with the release of their first two albums, 2016’s Starfish Buffet and 2019’s Supernatural Mystics, while going through a series of lineup changes. The Montréal-based outfit supported both of those albums sharing stages with Choses Sauvages, Men I Trust, Le Couleur, JOVM mainstays Elephant Stone and American outfit Twin Peaks. Adding to a growing profile, the Montréal act’s remix of Spaceface‘s “Timeshare” has amassed over one-million Spotify streams.
The duo’s forthcoming third album will be released by Lisbon Lux Records, and the album will be the first album of material written and sung primarily in French. The album reportedly be “a delicious cocktail of madness, eclecticism and groove,” the band explains.
The forthcoming album’s latest single “DVD vidéo” is anchored around a languid yet lysergic groove that recalls Tame Impala, L’imperatrice and Pavo Pavo paired with dreamily coquettish vocals and boom bap-like beats. To me “DVD vidéo” evokes a remarkably pleasant psilocybin-induced trip.
