The Canadian underground is a vast, labyrinthine realm.
Lab Coast are part of a loose-knit group of bands and musicians who coalesce around Calgary, crafting something a little special.
The band's myriad recordings are blessed with more hooks than a tackle shop, a kind of lo-fi Teenage Fanclub or Guided By Voices if they were used to cooler temperatures.
Faux Discx are fans, and attempted to piece together a new collection of their favourite songs from the band's catalogue.
'Lab Coast' drops on May 12th, with the Canadian group set to play a flurry of extremely rare UK shows.
Clash has nabbed 'As Usual' as a preview – delightfully awkward, hilariously off kilter, it's an entrancing odd-pop gem.
