Description: Spoon Vs ON-U Sound Lucifer On the Moon Vinyl LP New Sealed. ‘Lucifer On The Moon’ is the anti-gravity companion to Spoon’s ‘Lucifer On The Sofa’. A top-to-bottom rework of the Austin band’s tenth album, it was created by On-U Sound founder and UK dub icon, Adrian Sherwood.'Lucifer On The Moon’ first took shape as a few heady remixes for the singles from ‘Lucifer On The Sofa’. Frontman Britt Daniel offered Sherwood two suggestions: “Avoid things that would not be possible on tape,”and“Add whatever you want to add, the less modern the better.” The collaboration shouldn't come as a surprise: dub-inspired production is wound through Spoon’s classic tracks, from ‘Finer Feelings’ to ‘Inside Out’. Sherwood is a proven collaborator whose resume includes partnerships with seminal artists like The Fall, Jah Wobble, and Mark Stewart. The initial results pleased both parties and Sherwood was invited to work on additional songs. And then a few more. “I got into the melody and the thoughts it evoked in me,” the producer explains. “It just evolved and we eventually found ourselves with a whole album.” ‘Lucifer On The Moon’ flips ‘Lucifer On The Sofa’’s rhythm tracks inside-out,and often rebuilds them wholesale. Sherwood supplied extensive additional instrumentation via On-U’s extended family of session players, including bassist Doug Wimbish and drummer Keith LeBlanc (both of whom performed in Sugarhill Records’ early 80s in-house rhythm section). He dug deep into the album’s multi-tracks, surfacing forgotten details and elements not present in the final album mixes.The result airlifts Spoon’s trademark melodies into lush alien terrain, replete with vibrant echo and rumbling low-end. “It wasn’t just a thing where you pick apart this and that and you stay on the grid and you add a delay,”explains Daniel. “He added so much more instrumentation to the tracks that they became completely different versions of the songs. Not just remixes, but companion pieces. A ‘Part II’.” Released in February, ‘Lucifer On The Sofa’ is Spoon’s purest rock ‘n’ roll record to date. Texas-made, it is the first set of songs that the quintet has put to tape in their hometown of Austin in more than a decade. Written and recorded over the last two years - both in and out of lockdown - the songs mark a shift toward something louder, wilder, and more full-colour.“It’s the best thing they’ve ever done,” wrote Rolling Stone. “More than exceeding their usual quotient of fire guitars, killer choruses, and crafty rock-history updates.”
