Vinyl LP pressing. Lake is storied in collaboration, sonic adventure and an allegiance to exploring the limits of crafting pop songs. They have toured, recorded and allied with some of the most pioneering figures in contemporary independent music: R. Stevie Moore, Karl Blau, and Phil Elverum's Mt. Eerie, to name a few. The World Is Real is Lake's fourth album for K and fifth overall, (excluding a bevy of beautiful, more casually released underground cassettes and EPs), a collection of songs adorned with meticulous coloring and both analog and digital orchestration.
