On paper, though, it just seems like textbook M83 splendor, a percussive explosion of choral opulence detonates over and over before fading away into distant, Basinski-esque disintegration. However, this foray into audacity earns the reputation the song title demands. Now, presumably, one doesn’t title a song “Lower Your Eyelids to Die with the Sun” unless one possesses the utmost faith in their artistic efficacy. Years before “Outro” created the Earth, the moon, and the stars, M83 ended some other world entirely with “Lower Your Eyelids to Die with the Sun,” the monolithic closer from Before the Dawn Heals Us. To celebrate, we took a look back at M83’s catalogue and compiled a list of their very best tracks.Įditor’s Note: Listen to the entire M83 playlist on Spotify.ġ. Mute Records will also digitally release remix and B-sides collections for Dead Cities and Before the Dawn Heals Us on September 9th.

The wistful Saturdays=Youth and the arena-shaking juggernaut Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming introduced M83 to the masses, but after several years of being out of print, the band’s first three albums were re-released on CD, vinyl, and digital download last week. While this masterful synthetic odyssey was the beginning of the end for Gonzalez and Fromangeau (Fromangeau would leave to spearhead Team Ghost, which is worth a spin for Dead Cities loyalists), Gonzalez evolved further with the sparkling neon space-gaze of 2005’s Before the Dawn Heals Us. The group was originally formed in 2001 by Anthony Gonzalez and Nicholas Fromangeau, and their humble beginnings in big-beat sentimentality and introverted minimalism shifted dramatically with 2003’s Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts. Yet, with over a decade of hyper-sensory dreamgaze to their credit, the diversity of their oeuvre is often overlooked. M83’s endearing tendency to go for the jugular every single time has allowed their entire catalogue to be easily lumped into a staggering pile of grandiosity.
