Description:

Limited transparent blue colored vinyl LP pressing. Joining Chad Peck on this flight around is bassist Jim MacAlpine and drummer Michael Catano (both of North of America and the touring Weird Nightmare band). Peck started working on the songs that would become Kestrels' fifth album almost a decade ago; half of the tracks came from a scrapped solo album. He began composing in earnest, though, in the spring of 2021, secreted away in his house in the country. The result is a woozy, disorienting suite of tracks, like finding a secret station between channels on a late-night drive. Take album-opener Lilys, which barnstorms in on a sea of percussion and swirling guitars as the protagonist wrestles with the concept of holding on to someone without letting them know they're clinging. "It's a treatise on how two incompatible ideas can coexist to make something work," Peck says.

"Better Wonder" is the acclaimed LP by Kestrels, released under the respected indie label Darla. This album showcases Kestrels' signature blend of shoegaze and alternative rock, featuring lush guitar textures, dynamic rhythms, and emotionally charged vocals. "Better Wonder" stands out for its melodic hooks and atmospheric soundscapes that transport listeners into a world of introspection and sonic beauty. The LP has received praise from critics for its cohesive production and heartfelt songwriting. Kestrels are known for their energetic performances and innovative approach to modern shoegaze. Over the years, they have built a loyal fanbase with previous releases such as "A Ghost History" and "The Moon Is Shining Our Way," earning recognition in both North American and international music scenes. Darla Records is an independent label renowned for supporting groundbreaking artists across genres like dream pop, ambient, electronic, and indie rock since 1994. Their commitment to quality releases has made them a trusted name among music enthusiasts worldwide.
