about

Having recently released his debut EP, 'The Skin Falls Off The Body,' last year on Dream Catalogue, Lighght returns with his debut album, 'Gore-Tex In The Club, Balenciaga Amongst The Shrubs,' on his own imprint, Shadow Gazing.

It’s a strange work about exploring self-indulgence as a model for self-healing, coming to terms with the arbitrary nature of pain and beginning the healing process whilst in an already vulnerable state: one of panicked ecstasy, where you keep cruising upward as you feel the safety of solid grounding evaporate beneath your feet.

While 'The Skin Falls Off The Body' was a short controlled burst of industrial and noise, 'Gore-Tex In the Club, Balenciaga Amongst The Shrubs' is a sprawling mass. Laying out the narrative in the spoken word chamber piece, ‘The Temple (Libretto),’ the story returns to us again and again throughout the album in fragments, painted in bright psychedelic strokes from broken techno, weightless trance and mutated Irish Traditional music.
