It's surprising that Sweet Lights isn't more recognized for his talent.
OK, not exactly. The Cos was not actually listening to Sweet Lights while busting the dance moves you see below. It's entirely possible that he's not familiar with the infectious pop-rock hooks of Shai Halperin's latest musical project. But mixing up an iconic Philly comic and a contemporary Philly musician was such a well-played, insanely ... Continue reading
Sweet Lights is the project of Philadelphia songwriter Shai Halperin, a guy who cut his teeth in the early 00s with the garage rock tones of indie favorites The Capitol Years (and in the original lineup of XPoNential Fest highlights The War on Drugs). In his new band, Halperin broadens his scope and his sonic ... Continue reading
The video for Spiritualized's "Little Girl" is nowhere near as long as the previous music video the band dropped, but that doesn't mean it's less cinematic. Actually, a lot like the video for "Hey Jane," the vid seems to focus in on one person who seems to live a turbulent life. They hang on the fringe, but have a good heart and conscious. They just made some bad decisions, ya know? Check out a review for Spiritualized's latest album right here .
Once an evangelical church and now a popular community arts and music venue, West London’s The Tabernacle last night played host to three visiting Americans. The advance publicity actually only promised two artists on the bill, Willy Mason with support from Sweet Lights , so it was therefore a bit of a surprise to turn up in good time for Sweet Lights to find Mason collaborator, Nina Violet , drawing a close to an opening solo set. The sell-out crowd hadn’t tumbled this either as most of them were still outside appreciating the last [...]
Sweet Lights - One Day (Sharon Van Etten cover)
Sweet Lights is the work of Shai Halperin, one time leader of The Captiol Years (whose line-up once included War on Drugs main-man Adam Granduciel). His debut as a one-man band certainly bears the marks of a honed songwriter with an affection for melodic pop. His influences often stretch back to the hook-laden 60s – he even responds to them – Are We Gonna Work It Out is a direct reply to The Beatles’ track. Musically there’s warmth to the album; it’s all going down easy with the acoustic in hand. It leaves [...]

Shai Halperin has already accomplished a lot as a musician and the former leader of The Capitol Years . Halperin and his band recorded a live session for BBC Radio, played the Glastonbury Festival, received high levels of praise from Rolling Stone and Pitchfork, and toured with the likes of the Pixies and Daniel Johnston (whom they also backed on tours). And The Capitol Years that featured members of Nightlands and The War on Drugs at certain points started out as Halperin playing every instrument on the first two albums. The artist went back to [...]

The long-awaited new Spiritualized album Sweet Heart Sweet Light comes out on Fat Possum Records 16 April 2012. "Hey Jane" is the first single and video from that album, and it's probably bound to cause a might of controversy for it's bold story line. But it's so worth it, after all.

![[Video] – New Video By Spiritualized – “Hey Jane”](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4140731_lg.jpg)
Watch the video for " Hey Jane " from Spiritualized the first single from their upcoming (and long overdue) April 17th release Sweet Heart, Sweet Light ( Fat Possum Records ). Spiritualized has just released a dark, gritty, NSFW, 10-minute new video for “Hey Jane” , their epic lead single off their upcoming “Sweet Heart Sweet Light” which we listened to last month. The album is out a month from now, on April 17 via Fat Possum . But [...]
Historically, Spiritualized has had two primary modes of conduct: the trademarked, baptismal epics – for example, the born-again sprawl of “Wont Get to Heaven (The State I’m In)” – and the ribald, rebellious rockers, which are also epic but toward an altogether different end, that is, J. Spaceman et al actively collapsing into themselves, everyone entrenched not in holy water, but in their own terrestrial perspiration. This, of course, is to speak very loosely of Spiritualized’s entire oeuvre, and, as exhibited by their new single, “Hey Jane,” the band has no trouble mixing its moistures. Here, both Spaceman sweat and holy [...]

First up is Crybaby's video for excellent debut I Cherish The Heartbreak More Than The Love That I Lost , shot in the gloomy surrounds of Bristol hospital and is a noirish loveletter to the exquisite pain of a broken heart. a Hotly tipped Essex 4-piece The Milk's new single Broke Up The Family is [...]

hearsayJust as Norman Foster says of our need for cities in the opening of Urbanized , the thing that attracts me to new music is the surprise of the unexpected. I need it like pancakes need syrup. I'll listen to a new discovery over and over again until the desire in my head is quenched. This mix is somewhat of a follow up to July , with an unprecedented repeat of three artists. But it has a smoother, less retro feel, appropriate as vacations wrap up, students go back to the educational [...]

Consequence Of SoundThis self-titled offering from Sweet Lights , a solo vehicle from Shai Halperin of Philly’s The Capitol Years, was marking time as a self-release before being picked up by indie label Highline Records. Halperin, aka Shai Son of Eli, is an enigmatic individual keen on recalling his youth, from the young kid on the album cover to a weirdly watchable video featuring him break-dancing as a teen. The record combines sounds from '70s and '80s rock encountered in Halperin’s youth, though not necessarily in real time. The Beatles are high on that playlist, but you can also catch echoes of [...]
