Larger-than-life chords meet an explosive delivery on post-punk hopefuls Gaslighter.Anonymous’ latest single “Lights Out”. What starts off as a disorienting journey through distortion and booming vocals devolves into the subtle beauty of the acoustic verses. Gaslighter.Anonymous is a band that wants its music to speak for itself, and “Lights Out” speaks volumes to the limitless potential of an exciting new band in the post-punk scene. The song evokes the feelings of some of the more popular modern post-punk contributors but separates itself via unique structures and an approach to tone that is vibrant and freeing.
When asked to comment on “Lights Out” the band put their feelings into a mysterious yet enticing single sentence, “California: The wheel is spinning, but the hampster’s dead.”
