Originally released in 2009, Earthly Delights is classic and essential Lightning Bolt. A major leap in the duo’s sound, elevating the low-end range without dropping any of the ferocious energy. The album is bathed in delicious rippling distortion with Brian Gibson’s thundering bass sounds carrying the day, as ever propelled by Brian Chippendale’s drum flurries. Think Black Sabbath with Rashied Ali on drums and you’re part-way there. An absolute essential and the limited root beer will not be sticking around long.
