Lucifer is the upcoming album from Peaking Lights, which is set for a June release in the US. The album was produced by Peaking Lights and mixed by Al Carlson (St. Vincent, Oneohtrix Point Never, Yeasayer).
Here's and excerpt from press release: All of our record titles have come to us in dreams, daydreams and epiphanies. Lucifer sat so strong with us. It means "Venus, bearer of light" and is the first sign of the sunrise. There are some major astrological and astronomical events involving Venus in this year of 2012.
The songs on Lucifer, by most people that have heard them, so far conjure a night time version of previous works, music to soundtrack the moonrise to the sunrise. To Indra and I, though there are similarities to earlier recordings, this stands on its own. It's changed us, or maybe we were already changed when we wrote it and it is that cathartic release. There was a new approach to recording our rhythms and we were able to see thru many more influences. To us this record is about play and playfulness, unconditional love, rhythms and pulses, creation and vibration.
