Lightning Dust - Lightning Dust - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

INFINITE LIGHT, Lightning Dust's sophomore album for Jagjaguwar, finds duo Amber Webber and Joshua Wells (both of Black Mountain) calling upon the powers of classic pop arrangements and making the most of five days with a Steinway Grand piano. Moments of INFINITE LIGHT remind US of the glory days of musical theatre, with touches of HAIR, ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW and TOMMY. LIGHTNING DUST have delivered a cosmic record about the adventure in finding love and the journey in losing and rediscovering Inchthe light.Inch Album Tracks 1. Antonia Jane 2. I Knew 3. Dreamer 4. The Times 5. Never Seen 6. History 7. Honest Man 8. Waiting on the Sun to Rise 9. Wondering What Everyone Knows 10. Take It Home

Sticky with unresolved, living feelings, walls of synths and bass lines rise to chill-inducing heights, while maintaining space around Amber Webber's singular voice as she sings of romantic warfare like some kind of cosmic Stevie Nicks, on an album that sounds arena-ready and devastatingly intimate all at once. Album Tracks 1. Wrecked 2. Run 3. Rapids and Rivers 4. I Do 5. Fallen New 6. Different War 7. Feel That 8. Only You 9. 7 Year War 10. Shadow of Verona

Lightning Dust's third proper full length finds it's inspiration in skeletal Synthpop, modern R&B beats, the films of John Carpenter and - in accordance with Lightning Dust's only longstanding rule - absolute minimalism. The core of Fantasy lies as much in the songwriting as in it's sonic, and begins with tools familiar to Webber and Wells her acoustic guitar and his Wurlitzer piano. They worked to distill the arrangements to just the few key elements that were necessary to make the feel right, and through countless hours of labor in the Balloon Factory. Album Tracks 1. Diamond 2. Reckless and Wild 3. Mirror 4. Moon 5. Fire Me Up 6. Loaded Gun 7. In the City Tonight 8. Fire, Flesh and Bone 9. Agatha 10. Never Again
