Naked Lunch - Lights (And A Slight Taste Of Death

Facts “I founded this band, and I’ll bury it when I feel like it," Naked Lunch mastermind, songwriter, and singer Oliver Welter once said. Obviously, he hasn’t felt like it yet. So it should come as no surprise that this band — believed by many to be long gone — is opening a new chapter in its eventful history, twelve years after their last critically acclaimed album All Is Fever (2013), with their new record Lights And A Slight Taste Of Death. And they’re doing so not only with style- and genre-defining albums like Songs For The Exhausted (2004) or This Atom Heart Of Ours (2007) — the latter earning them an Amadeus Award in their Austrian homeland — but also with countless high-energy live performances under their belt. Lights And A Slight Taste Of Death is a 14-track tour de force; demanding and harsh, yet tender and embracing.
