Last Night On Earth

Last Night On Earth

Inspired by time spent trapped in his apartment during Hurricane Sandy last fall, Lee Ranaldo's 2013 album with his band The Dust tackles themes of despair, rage and societal shift. The songs on the new album are darker, longer and more intense than those of its predecessor. In particular, the intertwining guitar play between Ranaldo (Sonic Youth) and Alan Licht (Love Child, Run On) enlivens these beautiful, scary songs.The Dust also features the incredible drumming of Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth) and bass work of Tim Lntzel (who has worked with artists from Van Dyke Parks to Norah Jones.
