Us Lights at the Doug Fir Lounge on April 28, 2015—click to see a whole gallery of photos by Drew BandyUs Lights have been getting after it at their downtown Portland rehearsal space lately, hitting a little bit harder than we’ve heard from them in the past. With three new demo tracks in the can, Chris Bigalke (aka Showdeer as well as Us Lights' manager) is offering us a glimpse into the sights and sounds of the band’s new music.
“‘Legs’ is one of the heavier and more intense songs off of Us Lights' new album, which is shaping up to be some of their best work yet, in my opinion,” Bigalke says. Showcasing a slightly darker, more grating sound than we’re used to from the band, who usually make liberal use of ethereal, poppy synthesizers, the clip below was captured by Jov Luke of Novosti and Hymn & Hearse video production with sound engineering by Jeff Simmons.
