Every so often, a record comes along that makes you want to kiss the nearest religious icon and thank chosen deity for blessing you with ears. Aquarium’s Key, by London-based trio Lilies on Mars, one such record. Call it dream-pop, call it shoegaze, call it whatever; it’s simply a stunning, stunning tune. Taken from forthcoming album Wish You Were A Pony (available for streaming via the band’s website), it’s accompanied by an apt and rather cutesy animated video, directed by Luna Caricola. Lisa, Marina and Matthew play The Victoria, Dalston tomorrow night (March 17th).
