Eat Lights Become Lights

Held up by the mammoth waiting times on new vinyl, Polytechnic Youth return to the fray here with an absolute beauty. The label is stoked to present the first new Eat Lights Become Lights full length in almost five years, and 'The Romance Of The Stars' is an incredible record, and more than worth the wait. We'd be amazed if there is a more starkly beautiful record released this year - an absolute stripped down, minimal masterpiece recalling nods to Eno, Cluster, Popol Vuh and Steve Reich amongst others. Richly rewarding and beautiful, it's Neil ELBLs' "classical" record in many ways - stripped right down from his trademark, layered Neu! homages and driving motorik grooves, longterm devotees may at first be taken aback, but the albums' absorbing, meditative grooves are utterly intoxicating, and all parties here, agree that it is his finest offering thus far. Limited to 500 copies.
