Lanayah | I'm Picking Lights in a Field... Cassette

Lanayah is a "fairly unclassifiable blackened screamo" collective based in Santa Barbara, CA and Seattle, WA. They are incredibly loud. The band formed in 2016 and currently consists of guitarist Lynn McTague, synthesist Ari Brown, and multi-instrumentalist Juno Callender.

Their upcoming album, I'm Picking Lights In A Field... marks an expansion of the band's compositional ambition. It was conceptualized, written, and recorded as a single album-length piece, and later cut into 8 tracks marking distinct movements while flowing freely forward.

Over the album's 40-minute runtime, Lanayah travels through dense fog and wide open landscapes, with jagged riffs, synthetic ambient passages, and intertwining polyrhythms. I'm Picking Lights In A Field... comes out June 16th via Drongo Tapes.
