Guilhem, singer of Montreal-based punk rock unit Lost Love, is thrilled to announce the vinyl release of his debut full-length album, Born & Bored.
Available since March via the most popular digital platforms, the album received the vinyl treatment in classic black vinyl, limited to 300. It can now be pre-ordered online through Thousand Islands Records, who is distributing the physical release via its Canada and USA webstores, with worldwide shipping options available.
Here’s what Guilhem stated about Born & Bored:
This album was recorded in December 2019 at Mountain City Studio in Montreal, QC. After playing 150+ solo shows, I thought it’d be a great idea to record a full-length album but I didn’t want to stick to an acoustic guitar and my voice so I decided to build these songs in “full-band” mode. “Born & Bored” is 94% DIY (see credits for the remaining 6%) and is released 100% independently by yours truly.
In this album, I talk about stressful stuff, hopeful stuff, depressing stuff, death and love. The excitement of feeling young and the disappointment of being bored.
About Guilhem:
A singer-songwriter whose style is hard to put in a box, Guilhem makes infectious pop rock that reflects his punk roots and eclectic musical influences. From mournful ballads to rollicking feel good anthems, his sound is unified by his deeply personal lyrics and keen ear for catchy melodies. A founding member of Lost Love, Guilhem has been performing solo since 2012; between the two projects he has performed over 500 times. After self-recording two EPs at home, 2017’s “Songs Songs of Lost Love” and 2018’s “Bad Art”, he released his debut full length in March of 2020. “Born & Bored”, recorded at Mountain City Studio by Adrian Popovich and produced by Hugo Mudie, but released 100% independently, sees Guilhem’s coming into his own as a solo artist, experimenting with more complex arrangements without compromising his distinctive sound.
