Vinyl LP pressing. 2013 album from the former Sonic Youth man. Inspired by time spent trapped in his apartment during Hurricane Sandy last fall, Lee Ranaldo's album with his band the Dust tackles themes of despair, rage and societal shift. The songs on the album are darker, longer and more intense than those of it's predecessor. In particular, the intertwining guitar play between Ranaldo and Alan Licht (Love Child, Run On) enlivens these beautiful, scary songs. The Dust also features the incredible drumming of Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth) and bass work of Tim Lüntzel (who has worked with artists from Van Dyke Parks to Norah Jones.
