Add Date: November 10
Artist: Lightning Bolt
Album: Earthly Delights
Label: Load
Genre: Noise Music
Comments: Well, it took roughly four years, but it's the new Lightning Bolt album, with another inexplicable cover drawn by their drummer.
I'm not gonna lie. While I think Lightning Bolt kicks ass, it's an inexplicable love. Their sound is basically an endless sonic attack of syncopated rhythms, unpleasant melodies, and general musical insanity in the trend of noise music (note, there is a difference between noise music and noise rock, in that the latter is generally rock with a far greater amount of dissonance). If you haven't listened to much noise music before, this honestly is probably a fairly decent place to start, especially if you can tolerate metal. There isn't any obvious differences between this album and previous Lightning Bolt material, or at least none that can be explained except to people that don't have their Ph.Ds in guys hitting guitars in ways that would make senior citizens cranky at the future.
