Description

Keith and Geoff welcome Spotlights mastermind Mario Quintero into Thunderlove Studio to chat about the band, their career, and their upcoming album, Alchemy For The Dead (drops April 28 via Ipecac Records).
Spotlights is Mario Quintero (guitar, vocals, keys), Sarah Quintero (bass, vocals) and Chris Enriquez (drums).
The band has released three albums to date:
Tidals (2016)
Seismic (2018)
Love & Decay (2019)
Consequence praised their “unique amalgam of sounds that is both heavy and heavenly.”
Brooklyn Vegan said Spotlights “balances the pretty with metallic sludge”
Invisible Oranges said they thrive “on the ambient and krautrock inspired edges of post-metal.”
Geoff Calhoun of Abandoned Albums said "Spotlights are mind blowingly good."

In the wake of their 2020 EP We Are All Atomic, Kerrang! observed, “That a band as heavy and romantic as Spotlights have become a fixture in the rock scene Is impressive; that they’ve done it in such a short period of time is tremendous.”
The band is on tour NOW - check them out!!
