Mystery Lights, The – Purgatory [COKE BOTTLE VINYL] – New LP

The Mystery Lights return with their most ambitious offering to date. With Wayne Gordon back in the producer's chair, the group delivers an eclectic mix of psychedelia and garage punk. There's a cohesiveness threaded by the elevated musicianship, earnest lyrics and attention to detail that make for a fiercely raw, yet unabashedly catchy album–dripping with all of the sing along hooks that have made them one of the most exciting live bands on the scene. Purgatory by The Mystery Lights Originally from the small town of Salinas, California and now based in NYC, The Mystery Lights' live shows gradually became the stuff of legend as the quintet won their following one fan at a time in dives from Brooklyn to the Bowery. The Lights’ sound has evolved into a fuzz-fueled hopped-up 21st Century take on 60s garage pebbles, and artful 70s punk, that is all their own.Artwork [Gatefold Art], Design – Lily Rogers Backing Vocals – Alec Kersenboom (tracks: B5) Bass – Alex Amini Congas, Bongos, Percussi
