As an update to our recently posted article on the upcoming new album, Fantasy, from Black Mountain alumni Amber Webber and Joshua Wells' Lightning Dust, we'd like to offer a link to an early stream of the entire album, which actually releases on June 25.
The album is a fresh mix of songs with a pop rock feel throughout. It explores Amber Webber's desire to work her Goth side ("Moon", "Agatha"), and keeps Joshua Wells' desire for a spare and minimal music experience. On their third album, they not only hit the ball out of the park, they firmly cement the band's foothold as more than a side project.
With the excellent lead-off single, the infectious "Diamond", which sequentially opens this ten-track gem, and the following grab bag of nine other songs, Fantasy is as fine an album as you will hear this year.
