Wow. Three letters encapsulating how late on the scene we are on Son Lux. His amazing, diverse and exceptional album At War with Walls and Mazes was released in 2008. The video we posted a few days back – These New Puritans had some arrangements done Mr. Lux.
NPR’s All Songs Considered named Son Lux Best New Artist in their The Year in Music show in 08
“The thing that’s great about this record is that it has this incredible range of energy and emotion. The songs have this great narrative arc. They may start off really quiet and intimate and solitary. And then they just kick you in the stomach. They just erupt. I feel sometimes, when I’m listening to this record, like the songs just grab me by the collar, throw me to the ground, and then apologized.” – Robin Hilton
