PAERISH - You're in both dreams (and you're scared) ((Vinyl))

If youve seen David Lynchs classic film Mulholland Dr., you might recognize the title of PÊrishs third full-length, Youre In Both Dreams (And Youre Scared). Its a line spoken by one of the two men having a conversation in that movies incongruous diner scene. PÊrish vocalist/guitarist Mathias Court was watching the film for maybe the tenth time last year, and, given the insecurity of being a musician during the COVID pandemic, that line stood out to him like never before.

Given that PÊrish was formed when Court was at film school with bassist Martin Dupraz, its little surprise that the bandnow completed by guitarist FrÈdÈric Wah and drummer Loic Fouquetwould use a cinematic reference for its title. The first two records were peppered with them, and many of their songs started with Court fiddling with his guitar while watching something in the hopes that hed capture the emotion of whatever was onscreen. This time around, the title is the only thing directly inspired by the moving image. Whereas on 2016s Semi Finalists and 2021s Fixed It All, Court would utilize other peoples art to draw parallels to how he was feeling, this time it was his own internal wranglings that influenced his songwriting.

By December 2021, Court had demoed the album. A year later, PÊrish flew to Philadelphia to record with Will Yip. The bands familiarity with Yip lends a natural confidence to this album that disproves the very insecurities that inspired it. It turned into the album PÊrish have always wanted to make.

When I listen to these songs, says Court, I almost dont realize this is our album. I feel like we got even closer to our final form. This is the one weve been wanting since we were kids. Im so proud of it.
