Lights Out Asia - Radars Over the Ghosts of Chernobyl

[ScottWilliamDunn]

what's with all the comments about being high whilst listening to this music? You don't need the drugs! The music can have the same effect on its own!

[ScottWilliamDunn]

I'm using Light out Asia to influence my composition for A2 Music Technology. Their drums are always so interesting! The harmonies are beautiful! The musical elements of their song are so simple, but the music itself is so complex! Got alot of work to do to match this standard!!!

[tattootheplanet09]

Lights out Asia is primarily an instrumental band, u are not going to find lyrics for this reason. Simply AMAZING! I really dig this music! SOOOOOO powerful!

[tooldruid]

Lights out Asia has no lyrics posted anywhere on the web. I think that's part of their mystique. Most of their songs have no lyrics, but the few that do, you can't tell what their saying. It's a mysterious tactic to say the least...

[Xoahr]

If anyone is interested in the Russian at the start, it's like:

bloke 1 - Our Lord in heaven, forgive what we've done to this place.

bloke 2 - We are absolved. We are absolved.

bloke 1 - I doubt.

bloke 3 - Russian foreign export

bloke 2 - We are absolved.

I don't really get it, but hey, it provides good mood. There's another LoA song with Russian in it - I'll translate that one too.

I hate all these comments about drugs. You don't have to be fucking high to enjoy this kind of music...

You'd rather put some Chernobyl photo instead of this frozen lake. But still thanks for upload.

[KSCIAA]

@frirajdowiec No, I definitively would rather have this photo than one of Chernobyl as you can see because I don't do literal interpretations of songs. Too obvious, I choose photos based on feel.

[treeborgir]

One of the best!

@treeborgir

If only! Lights Out Asia is a superb artist. The world would be a better place if their songs would be more popular.

[Alinoz700]

Really took me back to my Orb days listening to Spanish Castles in space.

[mortizya666]

lyrics??????? please!!!!!!!

[KSCIAA]

@mortizya666 Can't help you there. There aren't any official lyrics laying around for me to use.

[timson88]

Many say that art is our expression of emotions. I would have to say post-rock, such as LOA, Russian Circles, Red Sparowes, Dirty Three, GS!YBE, SMZ, God is an Astronaut, Collapse Under The Empire, Maybeshewill... (too many unheard of bands) are direct expressions of the purest spirituality.

[tooldruid]

Ethereal and phenomenal...LOA is in a class by themselves....

[arbym01]

I have to completely agree w/ timson88!! OMG! I thought Hammock was my favorite ethereal / post-rock band, until I just now stumbled upon LOA. Absolutely incredible talent.

[989gianmaria]

atmosfera fantastica!

[timson88]

And once again, I stumble upon a post-rock/ambient band that i've never heard of, yet worthy of the greatest amount of praise in regards to their musical endeavors. Sad, yet fitting that bands such as this are not "discovered", or whatever that means. I like to think they prefer to keep it that way...

[85yourface]

The beginning of this songs literally reminds me of the ghosts of chernobyl when it exploded. One of my most favorite songs on my itunes.

[jigoku6ni6otosu]

This song seems to uplift all the previous emotions that had been in me and fill me with an entirely new sense of being. It's like I'm dreaming. Beautiful, simply beautiful!

[deaddrone]

hello all

anyone has the lyrics for this?

thx in adv. :)

[starmanskye]

It is SO COOL that a lotta folks are watching, listening and really DIGGING on this group and other cool ambient soundscape artists, following the dynamic progressive experimental ballad-jazz-trance-cosmic spacey heritage of those masters like Oldfield, Eno, Burmer, Roach, Pink Floyd, T-Dream .. and others, in a format now called Post-Rock -- It's been like 24 years ago that this 'new' post-classic genre totally captured my heart and mind, helping me to transcend darkness and pain to see light.

[tooldruid]

@starmanskye What a great, thoughtful comment man...It's nice to know there are others who see music the way I do...Thanks for paying attention!

[snorlaxxxxxx]

this band should stay instrumental, not diggin the vocals

[tooldruid]

One of the greatest post-rock songs on all of YouTube.  This band just keeps growing on me...

[Buditokid]

men this song its nice not all people can get this...just select ears...thanks men to share this

[tooldruid]

The song is timeless...such awesome atmosphere....

[Buditokid]

[markMills00]

[Hauntlander]

The beginning sends chills up my spine, gotta love it.

[angstwechsel]

Great song, great album!

[free0files]

Look at n5MD website. There is new free song from LOA. "We fit into castles" :)

[jimmy8shoes]

cant find...i must be blind....do you have a link??

[Solitude140]

i love this picture

[tooldruid]

So cryptic and ominous...If your familiar with the Chernobyl disaster, the sinister sounds on this song fit the events so perfectly...If you notice, Lights out Asia use "Russian" themed songs in a lot of their material...Why this is is debatable, but I think it has something to do with Russia being identified by most Americans as "the other", and "the other" is always mysterious and intriguing.

[morbidblessings7]
