Indie Rock singer-songwriter Adam Lytle writes songs that, “explore the darker regions of the heart.” In his upcoming sophomore album, Altars, Lytle’s poetic lyricism delves into, “the sort of razor-sharp observations that might make you feel uncomfortable.”
The visionary “technician of the sacred” confronts the intense complexities of the human condition in this record, drawing heavily on gothic and religious imagery to create a haunting yet captivating atmosphere of what’s to come.
Today, Lytle releases the album’s second single, “Heaven,” accompanied by a live performance video recorded at the legendary Power Station Studios.
On the track Adam describes, “‘Heaven’ is a critique in the form of an odyssey. Drawing on elements of Psychedelic Rock and Kosmische, the song follows one person’s search for meaning through a society that pretends to have all the answers. The energy you hear comes from the fact that this song was recorded live in the studio. With each take, the sound became more and more unhinged. In a way, perfectly mirroring the unraveling arc of the narrative.”
