Available exclusively on Side-Line today is the premiere of the new video for “Innocence (2025 electro mix)” by Pittsburgh dreampop / post-punk band Lowsunday, taken from Projekt Records’ extended 30th anniversary remaster of their debut album “Low Sunday Ghost Machine”, released digitally on September 5, 2025.
The track appears on Disc 2 of “Low Sunday Ghost Machine (2025 remaster)”, where Lowsunday revisit material from their mid-1990s sessions through new mixes and reinterpretations. “Innocence (2025 electro mix)” and “For A Moment (2025 electro mix)” were produced and mixed by bandmates Shane Sahene and Bobby Spell, who joined after the original album sessions and later appeared on the 2001 Projekt album “Elesgiem”.
The clip for “Innocence (2025 electro mix)” was directed by Jer Herring and forms part of a visual pairing with the video for “For A Moment (2025 electro mix)”.
And here is the second video, “For A Moment (2025 electro mix)”.
“Low Sunday Ghost Machine (2025 remaster)” is an expanded edition of the band’s 1996 debut, originally self-released under the full name Low Sunday Ghost Machine. The new edition collects nine remastered album tracks on Disc 1 and a second disc of seven bonus cuts, ranging from unreleased mid-’90s material to new 2025 mixes.
Alongside the digital release, Lowsunday also issue a limited 7″ single pairing “Static” and “Besides” on grey marble vinyl with silver foil emboss on the cover. This 7″ comes from a 1997 Bliss Records pressing, with a re-recorded version of “Static” on the A-side and “Besides” as an exclusive B-side that only appears on this format, now offered again via Projekt’s store and Bandcamp.
The 1996 album sessions featured Sahene (vocals, guitar), Marc Turina (bass), LP Cyburt (drums), Scott Bedillion (guitar) and Dale Reckless (synth). “Glittered Something (2025 remaster)” dates from 1997 and features Sahene, Turina, Eric Arnold (guitar), Shaun Leslie (synth) and Michael McCabe (drums), while “For A Moment (goodbye mix 2025 remaster)” documents the late-1990s line-up with Sahene, Bobby Spell (bass), AT Vish (drums) and the late Shawn Bann (guitar, synth).
About Lowsunday (formerly known as Low Sunday Ghost Machine)
Lowsunday formed in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1994 under the original name Low Sunday Ghost Machine. The group emerged as part of the first wave of American shoegaze and dreampop, blending post-punk elements with layered guitars, synths and atmospheric vocals.
Under the Low Sunday Ghost Machine name, the band self-released their first full-length “Low Sunday Ghost Machine” in 1996, initially distributing the CD themselves and through Etherhaus. The album showcased their sound as a mix of energetic dark rock and dream-leaning textures.
By the end of the decade, the band shortened their name to Lowsunday and signed to Projekt Records for their second album “Elesgiem”, released in 1999/2001. “Elesgiem” pushed the sound further into shoegaze and dreampop while retaining post-punk and indie-rock elements.
The band’s line-ups across this period included core songwriter Shane Sahene alongside musicians such as Marc Turina, LP Cyburt, Scott Bedillion, Dale Reckless, Eric Arnold, Shaun Leslie, Bobby Spell and AT Vish.
In recent years Lowsunday have worked with Projekt Records on archival and remastering projects. In 2024, Projekt issued a remastered and expanded edition of “Elesgiem”, adding previously unreleased bonus tracks. The 2025 remaster of “Low Sunday Ghost Machine” continues this process by restoring the debut album, compiling era-specific material, and presenting new 2025 electro mixes such as “Innocence (2025 electro mix)” and “For A Moment (2025 electro mix)”.
