We’ve been avidly following the rise of The Lunar Keys, covering their high concept, high octane single, Oxygen Type, as well as the metaphorical and dynamic, Life Is A Dirty War, so when we heard that they were set to release 88 Train, we were thrilled, and couldn’t wait to listen and feed back!
Setting the tone with an astral frequency and ethereal guitar soundscape, The Lunar Keys open 88 Train with situational and observational prose as they sing, “Walking out into the street, I breathe in the air, in the station half asleep, people… this train is running slow…”
The opus expands with an indie rock meets 80s energy, brimful with instrumental mastery, hooks, and evocative lyricism that take us on a journey with a nostalgic twist and fierce risers.
We love the dynamic nature of the track, the epic guitar solo, and the charismatic vocal performance from the band. The Lunar Keys is a rock band from Guildford in the United Kingdom.
We learn that that 88 Train is designed to take us on “a transformative journey through the fleeting nature of time, the desire for connection, and the search for meaning.” Over the past two years, The Lunar Keys have been steadily building a dedicated following, with their unique blend of rock, infused with raw energy.
The emotionally charged track invites us to “embrace the present and seek deeper connections with others while embarking on the thrilling journey of life.”
We have added 88 Train to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream the wider discography of The Lunar Keys including Life Is A Dirty War and Oxygen Type!
