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 Neil Young The Times EP Rock And Pop | Warner Records | 1LP, EP/Mini Album Released 19th February 2021 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Neil Young The Times EP £15.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Warner Records SKU: 0093624885788 Formats: 1LP, EP/Mini Album Released Date: 19th February 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View New Order Blue Monday (2020 Remaster) Rock And Pop | Warner Music | 12", Single Released 2nd October 2020 £12.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders New Order Blue Monday (2020 Remaster) £12.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Warner Music SKU: 0190295665913 Formats: 12", Single Released Date: 2nd October 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View She & Him A Very She & Him Christmas Rock And Pop | Domino | 1LP Released 28th October 2011 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders She & Him A Very She & Him Christmas £13.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Domino SKU: DS055LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 28th October 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Smithereens, The The Lost Album Rock And Pop | Sunset Blvd Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released 26th January 2024 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Smithereens, The The Lost Album £28.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Sunset Blvd Records SKU: LPSBR7037C Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 26th January 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Seahawks Paradise Freaks Rock And Pop | Ocean Moon | 1LP Released 5th May 2014 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Seahawks Paradise Freaks £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Ocean Moon SKU: OM012LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 5th May 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Phantogram Three Rock And Pop | Universal Music | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 16th September 2016 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Phantogram Three £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Universal Music SKU: PHANTOGRAM3-2 Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 16th September 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Cult, The The Cult Rock And Pop | Beggars Banquet | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 12th May 2023 £27.00 -
