Release Notes:
Greetings to BOSS for the -web- Pre, here is our retail release!
ItÆs been a while since The Lantern shined its High Beams
out into the world but lifeÆs a maze of alternate paths
(marriage, children, Portland Oregon, etc) and thatÆs just
the way it goes/went. Fortunately for all lovers of heavy
male psych brotherhoods the ML gang convened back in 2009
before parting ways temporarily to track their second full-
length, Platoon, and here it is. As oughta be expected,
it's a monstrous hot-rod cruise into screaming dual wah
distortions powered by the poker faced Gavin/Chip rhythm
section and splattered with jazzy freak-out organ (courtesy
of Phil/Stunned), trademark drooling white light William
Giacchi guitar shred, and the occasional Stallones echo
yelp. Featuring most of their live classics from the pre-
hiatus era (ôDark Cicadas,ö ôFriendship,ö etc) and tracked/
mixed by Best Coaster Bobb Bruno, this fills the hole in yr
heart left by High Beams. Matte CD digipaks with classic
National Geographic photo collages designed by Cameron Araw.
Mastered by James Plotkin. Edition of 500. CD edition also
contains both sides of the Showstopper 7" (NNF191) as bonus
tracks.
