Sonoluminescence - 'luminescence excited in a substance by the passage of sound waves through it.' Luder seamlessly incorporates all the influences of the individual band members and their musical histories into a coherent whole. When Eric and Phil bring elements of Stoner Rock, Sue might counter them with an almost jazzy bass line. Scott might pitch a decidedly shoegazery melody line, Phil may react by channeling his inner metal-head. When Sue comes to the table with a decidedly ambient bass line, the other three might add any and all types of raucous, multi-genre-ic sounds. If Phil's hispanophilia threatens to get out of hand, Eric may throw in an absolutely tribal drumbeat. Now, add a pinch of humor to the mix, and it all combines to give Luder's music that certain out-of-left-field-je-ne-sais-quoi that adds up to a band that in the end sounds like no other. Then you bring Sue's ethereal vocal stylings into the picture, and you makes for quite a spicy stew. Luder's songs have been described as "disturbingly peaceful," "peacefully disturbing," and "in need of editing" (to which they gleefully and politely say "no, thank you" and "up yours" in unison). As the a result of staying true to their musical passions and influences, not to mention running up a rather hefty electrical bill in Sue's basement, the debut album from Luder, 'Sonoluminescence' was etched out in the dwelling that was once known to insiders as The Slot House. Recorded at Rustbelt Studios with Eric Hoegemeyer (Giant Brain, Deep See Sound System) on the dials over the course of six months whenever all parties could meet, Sonoluminescence is a very organic and dynamic, an orgasmic whirlwind of Rock Recording. Luder's debut is sure to turn a few heads, cause a spit-take or two, and clean out a few eardrums in the process. Hell... you might even catch them live if the guarantee is right and there happen to be any baby- and dogsitters available to work that particular night...
