pretty lightning
there are witches in the wood
fonal
formed around a crux of drums, vocals & a variety of guitars, the arrangements are bolstered by shruti-drones, organ loops & theremins.
pretty lighting are, in essence, a raw psychedelic-blues duo that on the surface could be seen as kindred spirits to the likes of wooden shjips or moon duo, but they also appear to mirror a freak-folk sensibility found in the likes of sunburned hand of the man & their stateside compatriots. they also echo the communal, ritualistic krautrock of amon duul ii or perhaps the primitivism of sweden’s international harvester. a broad sonic vision, 11 sweet, succinct chapters of spacious harmonies & hooks.
