What a tune. Japan’s Lite have a new album Illuminate out next month on Transduction. This song was produced by John McEntire. The UK version has eight songs compared to the original Japanese release of five.

Looking forward to this.. Their latest stuff is very synthy and guitarless which is a brave move but it works brilliantly.
I have seen LITE a good few times now and they are quite simply on of the most exhilarating live bands I have seen live to date. Hope an Irish date pops up soon but not the Lower Deck… anywhere but there.
