After co-founding and touring with Black Mountain for over a decade, the duo departed from the band to further their own longterm creative partnership. Lightning Dust has evolved noticeably with each release, from the spare, dark folk of their self-titled debut, to the synth and drum machine-heavy 2013 album Fantasy. However, the through-line of their discography has been Wells’ deft production tailored perfectly around Webber’s modestly iconic voice which stirred Pitchfork write of their 2009 LP Infinite Light that Webber’s was “one of the fiercest, most stirring vocal performances of any release this year.” In this sense the tracks on Spectre echo the spirits of quintessential rock vocalists like Grace Slick and Beth Gibbons, throughout a collection of songs that range from expertly sculpted folk-rock ear candy, to sparse Judee Sill-esque ballads consisting of little more than piano and voice. Written during the devastating forest fires that filled her hometown of Vancouver with smoke and a sense of apocalyptic doom, album opener “Devoted To” captures Webber’s resilience and determination to reestablish her creative independence as she sings “I will find my way back in even if I never sleep…Gotta find my way back in, it’s all that I believe.” Propulsive rocker “Run Away” is an observation of the human need for change. Amber explains, “It was written in response to friends leaving their soul crushing jobs. I wanted to write a song that flip-flopped between the glorious freedom they felt upon leaving, and moments of despair that came afterward.” Shining an optimistic light on her departure from Black Mountain on the anthemic “When It Rains” Webber sings “Let’s celebrate what we’ve done so far instead of what comes next always ripping at our hearts – it ruins.” Wells’ impeccable drumming and tastefully restrained synths on the soaring and cinematic “Joanna” offer the perfect backdrop for Webber, as she sings about the demons of her past “I prefer not to see – You shook me inside my memory.” The assuring shuffle of “Pretty Picture”, on which Stephen Malkmus shreds, is followed by the booming slacker anthem “Competitive Depression” which features vocals by Destroyer’s Dan Bejar. Spectre’s dramatic two-part closer “3AM/100 Degrees” brings the album full-circle with a final statement about delusions that manifest in strife, exemplified by the song’s final lines “replaying what’s behind, made us all scared when nothing was there.” 2018 was a whirlwind of new beginning for Webber – going back to school and even trying out a new career. In the end these detours gave her the chance to step back and explore what parts of music were important to protect. “It made me realize that art and music are still my light.” She goes on to explain, “Spectre is my journey. It’s for all the women warriors that have been battling throughout life looking for a place to express themselves that feels inclusive and inspiring. It’s about finding yourself when no one is paying attention and inventing a new way of creating that feels honest and sincere. I truly feel that women, especially as we get older are underrepresented. That was truly the driving force to creating this album.” Artist Lightning Dust Genre Rock And Pop Label Western Vinyl Buying Options 1LP , 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings Devoted To Run Away Led Astray Inglorius Flu When It Rains Joanna More A Pretty Picture Competitive Depresison 3AM/100 Degrees Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Lightning Dust and more from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View Lightning Dust Nostalgia Killer Rock And Pop | Western Vinyl | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 9th June 2023 £25.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lightning Dust Nostalgia Killer £25.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Western Vinyl SKU: WV249LPC1 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 9th June 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lightning Dust Fantasy Rock And Pop | Jagjaguwar | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 21st June 2013 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lightning Dust Fantasy £16.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Jagjaguwar SKU: JAG239LP Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 21st June 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lightning Dust Lightning Dust Rock And Pop | Jagjaguwar | Miscellaneous Released 16th June 2007 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lightning Dust Lightning Dust £13.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Jagjaguwar SKU: JAG112LP Formats: Miscellaneous Released Date: 16th June 2007 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Laura Mvula Pink Noise Rock And Pop | Atlantic | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 2nd July 2021 £18.00 Select options Laura Mvula Pink Noise £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Atlantic Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 2nd July 2021 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Nazareth Hair of The Dog Rock And Pop | Back on Black | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th May 2013 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nazareth Hair of The Dog £17.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Back on Black SKU: RCV096LP Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 20th May 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Shed Seven See Youse At The Barras Rock And Pop | Secret Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 23rd February 2024 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Shed Seven See Youse At The Barras £22.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Secret Records SKU: SECLP306Y Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 23rd February 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Beach House Teen Dream Rock And Pop | Bella Union | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 30th January 2010 £37.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Beach House Teen Dream £37.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Bella Union SKU: BELLAV225 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 30th January 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View S Club Greatest Hits Of S Club 7 (Picture Disc) Rock And Pop | UMR | 1LP, Picture Disc Released 6th October 2023 £30.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders S Club Greatest Hits Of S Club 7 (Picture Disc) £30.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: UMR SKU: 5568214 Formats: 1LP, Picture Disc Released Date: 6th October 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Cheap Trick Next Position Please Rock And Pop | Steamhammer | 1LP Released 6th May 2013 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Cheap Trick Next Position Please £16.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Steamhammer SKU: 265681 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 6th May 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dinosaur Jr Dinosaur Rock And Pop | Jagjaguwar | 1LP Released 30th September 2011 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dinosaur Jr Dinosaur £16.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Jagjaguwar SKU: JAG196LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 30th September 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sophia De Nachten Rock And Pop | Flower Shop | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 8th November 2019 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sophia De Nachten £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Flower Shop SKU: FLOWLPLTD034 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 8th November 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Graham's picks View Product Quick View Thom Yorke ANIMA Rock And Pop | XL Recordings | 180g, 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 2nd August 2019 £23.00 - £61.00 Select options Thom Yorke ANIMA £23.00 - £61.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: XL Recordings Formats: 180g, 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 2nd August 2019 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Ashe Moral Of The Story: Chapter 1 & 2 Rock And Pop | Mom & Pop | 1LP Released 30th April 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Ashe Moral Of The Story: Chapter 1 & 2 £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Mom & Pop SKU: LPMP470B Formats: 1LP Released Date: 30th April 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Rock And Pop Start again
