Lunadon, Dion
Dion (red)
Announcing Dion Lunadon's (of A Place To Bury Strangers / The D4) debut solo album, on Agitated Records. The album was
recorded over a three-month period in Brooklyn, NY and features Robi Gonzalez (APTBS) on drums and Blaze Bateh from
Bambara on select tracks including "Fire." "With 'Fire' I wanted wild and heavy guitars with heavy sentiment in the
first vocal line to match. Something that grabs you and demands attention. Not background music," Lunadon explains of
the track. The album also features mixing by Chris Woodhouse (Mayyors, Ty Segall, The Intelligence, Thee Oh Sees) on
select tracks including "Com/Broke." From cutting
his teeth back home in New Zealand as a member of The D4 to his current role as bassist of Brooklyn-based A Place to
Bury Strangers, Dion Lunadon has played in some form of a rock & roll band his entire life. During a short break in
touring with APTBS, Lunadon had a rush of inspiration in the form of a Dion Lunadon creative spasm-a neurotic impulse to
make a batch of songs and do it right then and right there. What resulted is quite a jump away from his work in APTBS
and draws more influence from bands like Toy Love and The Gun Club, as well as New Zealand unknowns such as Gestalt and
Supercar. Edition of 500 copies.
