2018 release. Lusts, the recording pseudonym of brothers Andrew and James Stone, return with their album Call of the Void. The self-recorded and self-released album has a diverse palette of sonics and themes, having been in?uenced by the endless motion of the city, otherworldly nights, and brutalist architecture. It's a utopian and romantic record; Lusts are more interested in being part of a developed and progressive future than being caught in a dystopian mire. The album is hopeful rather than despairing, but there are also explorations of darker themes. Utilizing the haunting, reverb-drenched production of classic '80s post-punk as well as the glistening sheen of the iconic synth-pop the decade is so famous for, Lusts explore a rich soundscape of Lynchian ambiance amongst their poppier hooks. There's a layer of experimentation here too, whether it's Andy drawing from the themes of Jean Baudrillard's America for the single 'lost highway' or James introducing a rhythmic pattern by tapping pint glasses, inspired by Steve Reich's minimalistic approach, for 'joy in a joyless place'.
