Jagjaguwar has had a tremendous first half of 2007 so far with the sophomore releases of The Besnard Lakes …Are The Dark Horse and Parts & Labor’s Mapmaker albums. Well now they’re trying out a debut, and this one will come from Lightning Dust on June 19.
LIGHTNING DUST is Amber Webber and Joshua Wells, who have been playing together for many years as part of BLACK MOUNTAIN. They've toured the world and have played impenetrable space-rock to the unlikeliest of audiences. With an abundance of creative energy to spare, the two decided to start a separate project together.
Committing themselves to a more simplistic approach with Lightning Dust, Webber and Wells also decided to escape the comforts of their familiar instruments and writing styles. On their debut, minimal and spacious arrangements and a moody, theatrical vocal-style aptly expose the demons, creating songs that creep into your bones with a haunting chill.
