Customer Reviews

Lightspeed Champion is well er.. champion.

What to make of Dev Hynes' first effort at flying solo? Coming from the trashy, fun and wholesome background of Test Icicles, his change of tact is frankly startling. Moving into the everpopular realm of folk, (Cool folk mind), Lightspeed Champion conveys the "patheticism" of being a young black male in England with supreme aptitude, making you either sympathise or loathe. But it would be reproachably gauche to base Lightspeed solely on his Marmite-like topics, such as falling out of love or... vomiting. However, the musicality of each track is so honestly beautiful that when combined with his almost naively swivet nature, it makes you want to buy this record twofold, and join his galaxy of the lost. P.S. Back to Black cover- wow.

best debut for a long time.

really this album is incredible in just about every way. The lyrics are brilliant and at times it just feels like you're watching a film of your life...wow thats deep but there's not really any otherway to say it. The times only gave it 3 stars in their review but it deserves a lot more. Dev is brilliant and this is some of the most unique stuff i've heard in a while. Really get this album good priceon itunes as well which is always nice. Really well done to everyone involved in this though its an exceptional debut.

Stunning

This album is beautiful. It swells like a tide, with blends of almost rock (Midnight surprise - RECOMENDED!!) to beautiful Nu-Acoustic songs (Galaxy of The Lost). His bad covers ep is worth hunting down as well laters x

After writing a batch of new material, Hynes flew to Nebraska to collaborate with Saddle Creek's resident producer, Mike Mogis. Backed by an informal band that included...
