Dead Gowns It's Summer, I Love You, and I'm Surrounded by Snow
How does one cope with the pang of desire? It's the tender, sometimes volatile question that confronts Genevieve Beaudoin on her debut full-length as Dead Gowns. A deft lyricist with a sweeping range of poetic color and texture, Beaudoin paints her story in dark romantics, presenting a woman in the high summer of adulthood deciphering life's capacity to fulfill desires or let them go painfully unmet. These cravings - to be touched, to be known, to have just one more encounter with someone lost to time - are a lacuna Beaudoin prods at insistently throughout the album's twelve songs.
