Album Notes:
It begins with a sunset “In The Corner Where It All Began”
and ends with a deep night ballad in “Craters Of the Moon”.
The Blacklight Trap is not intended to be a “concept
album”. However, it is the kind of thing that makes most
sense when you sit down and immerse yourself in it. This one is
a little darker than the two previous releases. Whereas The
State Line and Westernaire had a certain regional
soundtrack quality, The Blacklight Trap is more of a
global landscape. In Neil Young terms, its mood is more like On
The Beach. It’s an intense record for heavy times,
but not without a silver lining. The characters in these songs
all seem to be lost, wounded, or trapped; their salvation lying
somewhere out of reach. If not in our world “The Blacklight
Trap”, then somewhere beyond it.
