Here’s a new track from Lightning Bolt: “King Candy”
Monster noise duo Lightning Bolt kicked off their big U.S. tour, and to celebrate, they released a new track from their forthcoming EP, Oblivion Hunter (also the name of a forthcoming mixed drink—I’m still experimenting to get the right ratio of Jager to Everclear). It’s called “King Candy” and you can stream it below via Soundcloud. Turn it up to fuck-the-neighbors levels for maximum effect.
Lightning Bolt’s tour continues tonight in New Orleans, where they’re supposedly playing this place, and will find its way here to L.A. next week for the FYF Fest. Oblivion Hunter comes out Sept. 25th. Our calendars are marked.

Man, i saw these guys yesterday in New Orleans. It was a dream come true for me, I’ve been a fan for a long time and have been wanting to see them live for years now. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint. the venue was tiny and they actually played on the floor! It was so hot and cramped and oh so LOUD and dear god the energy in that little room was indescribable. almost the entire crowd was jumping and shoving and pushing and just having a fucking amazing time and it was the greatest show i’ve ever been to. They truly are a band that you MUST see live.
Yeah Lightning Bolllllllllt!
