After revealing their album Sonic Citadel, will arrive on October 11th, via Thrill Jockey, Lightning Bolt have treated fans with the album’s first single: “Air Conditioning.” Lightning Bolt’s sound has been built on the ebb and flow between the power of raw, unbridled simplicity and a boundless, childlike sense of wonder. Bassist Brian Gibson and drummer/vocalist Brian Chippendale again recorded with Seth Manchester at the esteemed Machines With Magnets to capture the abandon of their music with clarity and Gibson’s incredible dynamic range clearly to make the record as visceral an experience as their live performances.
