The follow-up to their 2023-released Through The Dying Light, LESOTHO’s A Flashing On Plain Glass album sees guitarist Kyle Loffredo, bassist Cliff Cazeau, and drummer Dan DeLucia once again collectively creating an emotive and stirring album. The nearly thirty-minute record delivers five immersive new songs which act more as movements, seamlessly transitioning from cathartic melodies to monolithic swells. The album represents themes of impermanence and inevitable change in the world.

To capture A Flashing On Plain Glass, LESOTHO returned to The Bridge Sound & Stage Music (Isis, BEDTIMEMAGIC, Miracle Blood) where the album was recorded and mixed by Alex Allinson, as with both prior albums. The record was mastered by Carl Saff at Saff Mastering (Cursive, Fu Manchu, Modern Life Is War) and completed with artwork by Thibault Landemaine of the Jack Hillside Collective.

 The members collectively state, “As a band we processed a lot of our emotions around the despair and chaos happening in the modern world through this group of songs. We dug deeper into our personal influences and explored a more diverse approach to the songwriting, including incorporating elements of classical and pop and blending that with our post rock foundation. The result is an album that we feel stands on its own as a reflection of the times we're in and how we're coping with it. Many of the more thoughtful and serene moments on the record ended up becoming some of the heaviest music we've ever written.”

With their early stream of the record, Decibel writes, “Boston instrumental collective LESOTHO are highly adept at telling stories without using any words, as you’ll hear on A Flashing On Plain Glass... Songs like ‘Marigold’ and ‘Frail Weapon’ deal with a loud/quiet dynamic, subduing themselves until the time to employ big riffs and hard-hitting percussion. Other songs, like ‘Fetch Quest,’ have a palpable sense of anxiety in the way they unfold, the loud and quiet sections teeming with energy and small movement. Everything comes to a head on the title, final track. LESOTHO take all of the tension created on each track and unleash it in a two-minute crescendo…”

LESOTHO will independently release A Flashing On Plain Glass on LP, CD, and digitally this Friday, March 13th. Purchase the album and merch HERE and find digital presaves HERE.
