Album Notes & Community Reviews
The notoriously enigmatic British duo constructed 'Lighthouse' as a profoundly surreal, highly cryptic piece of experimental spoken word music[cite: 1]. Utilizing cheap analog synthesizers, primitive sound collages, and Graham Lambkin's bizarre, deadpan vocal delivery, the album perfectly encapsulates the deeply humorous and fiercely independent spirit of the 90s lo-fi underground[cite: 1].
