Melodic guitar-rock album recorded in 1997 by Jeff Garber (former-CASTOR

leader, currently in NATIONAL SKYLINE and ON) and Derek Niedringhaus (former

CASTOR and SARGE bassist, current member of CENTAUR). The BIG BRIGHT LIGHTS

sound like the blessed union of NATIONAL SKYLINE's atmospheric vocal apogee,

the glorious multi-textured guitar-tempest that is/was SWERVEDRIVER, and the

unadulterated rock-sense of brainy guitar bands like The FOO FIGHTERS and

SHINER?E The BIG BRIGHT LIGHTS are ?missing link?Ebetween CASTOR's soaking wet

guitar sound, serpentine rhythms and emotive vocals, and NATIONAL SKYLINE's

mind-expanding Pro-Tools intricacies. Fans of Garber's work, The PROMISE RING

even used the lyric ?the big bright lights take Manhattan?Eon their last

album! The SKYLINE has a MCD on Hidden Agenda, an EP and a brand new

full-length on File Thirteen Records. Garber has recently joined former

Failure mainman Ken Andrew's electro-rock project ON. Former CASTOR bassist

Niedringhaus recorded & toured with SARGE for 2 years, survived, is now in

CENTAUR, HUM singer/guitarist Matt Talbott's new outfit.
