Lightning Dust

This is a winding and moving album; Sensual, confessional, and free of fences, Each song builds with inexorable force, often pulling back to a whisper before washing over the listener completely.

With their wealth of new imagery and the most incandescent flights, Lightning Dust sweeps you away from wherever you happen to be. Across 'Nostalgia Killer', Lighting Dust introduces a sound that feels vaguely familiar while forming a mythology all of their own. Although this exact work may not have been created if it wasn’t for the duo’s separation, it would be wrong to simply call it a break-up album. The songs here don’t merely travel that well-trod landscape, they reinvent the scene altogether; after all, sometimes love needs reinventing. Nostalgia Killer is about something that affects us all, which is how we make sense of the world and each other over time and across borders. And far out as always, Lightning Dust is reinvented here magnificently.

"...a close-miked vocal that could be Beth Gibbons, Grace Slick, or even Ronnie Spector." MOJO.

"...dreamy set of haunted piano ballads and ghost highway radio rock...tracks seem to boast some extra unknown element that coats the album in an intangibly dark sheen.” RECORD COLLECTOR
