Have you heard? Of course you have! But because I need to fatten up this here post (got an asshole editor breathing down my neck), let me reiterate: Lightning Bolt are releasing an archival EP called Oblivion Hunter on Load. The EP, due September 25, collects seven tracks recorded over the last several years, and if “King Candy” is any indication, expect to hear a softer side of Lightning Bolt. Now, turn your speakers way up (music starts off incredibly quiet), and chill out to new age sounds of “King Candy” here:
Lightning Bolt begin their lengthy North American tour tonight in DC. Go here for dates and here for earplugs, which you can promptly throw away because you’re the shit.
