Lux Aeterna

Humming Out Spools of Thread

Magic Eye/Cargo

This sounds like what happens when you live in a house with a studio in the spare bedroom, in the middle of a thriving apartment building scene. Disavowing allegiance to any genre, Lux Aeterna uses bits and pieces of just about everything -- arena rock, sub-harmonic Moog riffing, acid folk, Casiotones, freezy jazz, backwards tracking and so on. Like the Beastie Boys and Beck, Lux Aeterna seem to like being independent of any pigeonhole, freeing themselves to experiment with whatever sounds course through their skulls. Cargo Records, 4901-906 Morena Blvd., San Diego, CA 92117-3432
