New Entry: Lusts Premiere New Single "Lost Highway"

Leicester alternative/new wave duo Lusts (aka brothers Andy and James Stone) have premiered their catchy new single "Lost Highway".

About the track, Andy Stone said: “‘lost highway' is an idealized and romanticized vision, it’s about finding a place where no-one knows who you are, your past, or your future. It is partially inspired by Jean Baudrillard’s book ‘America’ and his observations as he travels across the country. The quote, ‘Driving is a spectacular form of amnesia. Everything is to be discovered, everything to be obliterated’ resonated with us and made us want to create this track. It’s about the everything and nothing-ness of escape.”

The song is out now. Grab it here, and stream it below.

New Entry: Lusts Premiere New Single "Ten Years"

Leicester alternative/new wave duo Lusts (aka brothers Andy and James Stone) have premiered their new single "Ten Years".

About the track, the band sais: ‘Ten Years’ is a song that challenges us. It’s about artificial intelligence, it’s about romance, nostalgia, disappointment, gender, and memories. It’s a collision of thoughts that ask us who we are, what we’ll be, as well as reflecting on what we’re not. Part of the song was written by generative A.I. and we wrote the rest. Who contributed more is still open to debate."

The song is taken from Lusts new EP 'Heavy Thoughts', out now. Grab it here, and stream it below.

New Entry: Lusts Return With New Single "Heavy Thoughts"

Leicester alternative/new wave duo Lusts (aka brothers Andy and James Stone) have returned with their brand new single "Heavy Thoughts".

With lyrics partly inspired by J.G Ballard’s High Rise, Andrew speaks on the track:

“We always want to juxtapose ideas and themes — looking for a utopia in the darkness. We wanted to create a song that simultaneously revelled in destructiveness, whilst also critiquing it. The book really shocked me growing up, and continues to do so. This track is about pushing us to explore parts of ourselves and the people around us.”

The track was also inspired by the immersive visuals of Andrei Tarkovsky’s Stalker, James saying:

“As writers, we’re constantly drawn to how visual imagery can explain a feeling in a more honest and visceral way than a description ever could. We want to create alternative landscapes and worlds to dive into and lose yourself for awhile.”

The band released their debut album 'Illuminations' in 2015.
