Vague Lanes drops 'Divergence and Declaration' full length
Out March 21 is “Divergence and Declaration”, the second album by the San Francisco Bay Area-based darkwave duo Vague Lanes. This new 8-track full length is the follow-up to 2022’s “Foundation and Divergence”.
The album features their signature two-bass configuration, with Mike Cadoo (Gridlock) handling the melodic six-string duties. At the same time, Badger McInnes (Here We Burn) adds his low-end four-string. The album opener, “Heptahedron”, also features drums by Martin Atkins (P.I.L., Ministry, Killing Joke).
Musically their tight, dual-bass attack forms the backbone of a sound that channels darkwave, gothic rock and post-punk influences.
You can pre-order the album below from Bandcamp as download, as a limited edition red LP and as a digipak CD.
