About Sugarcult

The Los Angeles, California-based quartet's third album, Lights Out, is a modern rock revelation - and Sugarcult's finest release to date. Lights Out reveals the evolved sound and vision of an inspired band hitting their prime. A band that has, somewhat quietly, already sold close to a million albums worldwide (over 700,000 in the US alone) with their first two releases Start Static (2001) and Palm Trees And Power Lines (2004).

Known and respected as one of the hardest working bands in the underground, they've remained untouched by trends, never content to rest in a single genre. Sugarcult is a band that has toured relentlessly for the past 5 years - building a dedicated domestic and international following. Most recently as the opening act on Green Day's American Idiot tour (in US and Japan), the main stage of Warped Tour, the main stages of legendary UK festivals such as Reading, Leeds, and Glastonbury; Japan's Summer Sonic Festival; as well as top-billing on the coveted Take Action Tour and their own successful headline tours.

Lights Out is an album that covers diverse sonic territory, but always remains on course; with a distinct balance between classic songwriting and forward thinking: From the hard rock of "Dead Living" & "Riot" to the haunting ballad "The Investigation" to the classic pop of "Shaking" to the dynamic post-punk of "Los Angeles", "Explode" and "Made a Mistake" & the infectious swagger of the first single "Do It Alone."; Lights Out makes no apologies.
