Peaking Lights are a great band.

their myspace page

theyve released some cdr and a lot of cassettes. it's beautiful. i mean cassette things. if theres a song you dont like that much youll have to ff to skip it. this is work. press stop press play look if the songs over no its not press ff press stop and so on. with this somehow i always feel like making music. its like remixing in a way. freedom through technical limitations. often from ffing i begin to like the song, its a fine distance to get to know someone (=somesong). but you know probably.
oh! and the sound. it's giving any song something weight. except for really bad songs (while writing this i have some vague picture of a mixture of T.A.F.K.A.Prince and Uffie and Herman Düne in my head.) These bands like, how was their name, I think the song was called Electric Feel or something. Their album is boring. How depressing beautiful melodies can get, that was what i felt. yet a cool thing to recognize. I like that. (while writing im listening to peaking lights - silver tongues soft whisper. this is so brilliant. the sun's missing. it might be found behind the dark clouds. clouds of lonely work and a walk home that wouldnt let you get to know a thing. freedom is distance from people so that you can see them better and love them better. the kite on the string.) oh. this band with the electric feel song they shocked me with that somehow. it had been a long time since ive been to that part of the city. fine melodies you can follow so easily and you take the ride and you arrive at desert station. the good music is either already there, nowhere to follow or it isn't easy to follow. peaking lights is right here. the other kind of music is like a good friend whos always hard to understand because hes talking to fast or its because he has all those mental leaps but you listen to him after a while of listening you recognize some kind of manner which is very lovely and great. some greatness in character. which makes it in the end all understandable. i think there aren't many artists like this nowadays. thats strange. like the residents or christoph schlingensief or ra sait (on our side hehe).
