This combined with the fact that they don't play many shows (presumably due to other musical commitments) may be why the release party for their latest full-length Infinite Light absolutely packed the Biltmore on a Thursday night.

Not to be confused with Lightning Bolt (who are also playing London soon but are VERY VERY DIFFERENT), it really makes the most of Webber’s vocal talents, which have impressed in every band she’s worked with but are finally given centre-stage here.

The Black Mountain side project Lightning Dust has a sound that is a little esoteric and makes your hair stand on end.
