Album: The Big Fear, released 28 June 2011

Bio
Formed in Brooklyn in 2009 and drawn to light/dark landscapes, glass-bottle hazes, and blurry sonic envelopes. Next up is an EP out June 28th. Get all prior releases here: quietlights.bandcamp.com

"from Brooklyn, but they sound like they're from a quieter, more perpetually snow-blanketed country. Their sound is a little bit shoegaze, and a little bit of the soaring orchestral swoop of Sigur Ros, plus some of that latent kinetic energy in the Stars' best songs." Flavorpill

lyrics
walk me down to the lake
through the woods, the trees
hold my hand, walk me there
I'd be afraid to go alone

now you feed me
now I eat

that summer just curled up around you
like burned paper
like a feeling of dread

I heard something about fire
it burns paper
but it cleans metal bright
