Nightlands, for those not keeping score at home, is the sublime bedsit recording project of War On Drugs sideman Dave Hartley. Imagine The Beach Boys, Esquivel and Hawkwind locked in sweaty three-way in the back of a shag-carpeted customized van with a magical unicorn going over an enchanted waterfall to escape the evil wizard airbrushed on the side. Nightlands plays Johnny Brendas next Friday in support of the recently-released Oak Island with Ape School and Our Griffins.
