House of Lightning to Release Lightworker on Translation Loss

Hey, so yeah. You might recall earlier this year when House of Lightning released Lightworker on LP/tape through Fair Warning Records. No? It was Easter, which was fitting somehow for the Floridian duo’s bright color scheme. Well, either way, it happened. This new version of Lightworker that’s set to release Oct. 14 on Translation Loss is CD-only, though, so it’s not so much a reissue of the album as it is completing the physical pressing triumvirate for those who, like me, still enjoy a disc that can also leave the house when called upon to do so.

The Lightworker CD is available now for preorder through Translation Loss (link below), and the PR wire checked in with the following info on the release:

Translation Loss Signs HOUSE OF LIGHTNING – New Record Lightworker Due Out October 14th

Artwork and Track Listing Revealed

Translation Loss are extremely proud to announce the signing of the mammoth and ground breaking band HOUSE OF LIGHTNING and the release of their debut record Lightworker! Everyone at Translation Loss are beyond ecstatic to be able to work with Henry Wilson and his new band HOUSE OF LIGHTNING, being huge fans of both Floor and Dove. HOUSE OF LIGHTNING takes what Dove created to an entirely new level of mathy-proggy rock sensation. Today both the artwork and track listing for Lightworker have been revealed.

The album Lightworker will be released October 14th. It is currently available for pre-order HERE.

Proudly hailing from Winter Haven, Florida, they feature current and former members of FLOOR, DOVE and CAVITY!

After the death of DOVE and before FLOOR’s current resurrection, a new band was secretly growing, HOUSE OF LIGHTNING’s long awaited debut album does more than just pick up where DOVE left off five years ago, they blast off out of the known universe and into a completely new and unknown dimension!

The resurrection occurs on October 14th, 2014 in the form of a 10 song, 40-minute riff-rollercoaster entitled Lightworker.

From the mad genius mind of Henry Wilson (FLOOR) comes and almost uncategorizable yet positively spiritual incorporation of Heavy Metal, Thrash, bite of Math, a sprinkle of Prog, a pinch of 1984 and a dash of 5150. Sounds wild, you say? That’s because IT IS! Lightworker is difficult to simply just pin a label onto; you are better off hearing this one for yourself. All aboard the rocket ship!

The album was produced at Atomic Audio, Tampa, Florida by Mark Nikolich & Henry Wilson

Lightworker Track Listing:
1. Quickness
2. Downbeat Situation
3. More Lights More Trails
4. Smoke and Mirror
5. New Jam
6. Vote Yes (To Say You Don’t Want it)
7. Need No Help

House of Lightning’s Lightworker Now Available on LP/CS

Posted in Whathaveyou on April 28th, 2014 by JJ Koczan

Also releasing a new album with Floor this week and hitting the road in support of it, Henry Wilson steps to the front on guitar and vocals with House of Lightning‘s Lightworker album, continuing some of the same ideas Wilson brought to the table with his post-Floor project, Dove. As the PR wire informs below, Dove‘s no longer with us (their 2004 self-titled remains a piece of buried treasure from among the Floor-related milieu), but House of Lightning‘s Lightworker came out on Easter via Fair Warning Records and is a solid burner. If you missed it, Floor‘s Anthony Vialon spoke highly if it in his interview last week as well.

Details and music follow, the PR wire vigilant as always:

HOUSE OF LIGHTNING is coming—look busy. Proudly hailing from Winter Haven Florida, they feature current and former band members of FLOOR, DOVE, and CAVITY. The death of DOVE finally gives rebirth to HOUSE OF LIGHTNING…Rising from the ashes like a mighty phoenix. The resurrection occurs on Easter Sunday 4/20 in the form of a 10-song, 40-minute riff-rollercoaster, “Lightworker.”

House Of Lightning’s long-awaited debut album does more than just pick up where DOVE left off five years ago; they blast off out of the known universe and into a completely new and unknown dimension. From the mad-genius mind of HENRY WILSON, comes an almost uncategorizable yet positively spiritual incorporation of Heavy Metal, Thrash, bits of Math, a sprinkle of Prog, a pinch of 1984, and a dash of 5150. Sounds wild, you say? That’s because IT IS. Lightworker is difficult to simply just pin a label onto; you are better off hearing this one for yourself. All aboard the rocketship!

“April is a busy month for our brother HENRY WILSON. Not only does this cat have a new FLOOR album dropping, but his long-awaited much-belabored HOUSE OF LIGHTNING record finally gets unleashed, taking what he started with DOVE, upping the riff-tornado and generally fucking with your dome. Nothing else sounds like this and it comes out 4/20 via brethren Fair Warning Records.”—Andy Low, Robotic Empire
