Black Mold is the moniker under which Polaris Prize nominee Chad VanGaalen has released his new album. I greatly enjoyed Soft Airplane, and so when I first heard about the new release I was very excited. I heard that for the album he was moving away from the alternative folk-esque style of Soft Airplane and going a bit electronica and “glitchy”, I interpreted this as meaning he was doing a Kid A and was rather excited to hear the results.
