Watch twang and swagger exchange blows in an assault that defines the All Things Lucid experience. All Things Lucid digs up the roots of rock n' roll, folk, and country and twists them into a new shape that walks tall and apologizes to no one. Filled with sincere lyrics, boisterous vocals, catchy rhythms, and good old fashioned raging guitar solos, All Things Lucid keeps the bloodline of Rock n' Roll pure.

All Things Lucid has been raising a lot of hype in the Chicago area and recently beat out over 80 bands for the annual Backline competition in Chicago.

"For your style of music, you do it perfectly... book your tour!" - Steve Smith A&R of Aware Records and judge of 2007 Chicago Backline competition.

It's hard to pigeon hole All Things Lucid into any specific genre. Influenced by historical greats such as Hank Williams, Buffalo Springfield, Jefferson Airplane, and The Rolling Stones, All Things Lucid understands the need to connect with the listener. If you ask the guys what's been in their stereo lately, you'll hear the likes of The Coldwar Kids, Cake, Spoon, and Modest Mouse. Each musician comes across eager and ready to shout their stories, and at every show the group comes out swinging on the first note.

The band was formed in Chicago 2004 by Miles Benjamin, vocals/guitar, and Mike Kostal, guitar. They were later joined by Jeff Wolinski on drums/piano, and Kevin Hiller on bass.

All Things Lucid released their first official EP "Story Of A Careless Man" at The Abbey Pub on August 25th, 2005, and in the summer of 2006 the group released their second EP "These Bones You Call Home."

Over the last year and a half All Things Lucid recorded and produced their third record and first full length album, Suburbs On The Moon. The LP includes 13 floor stomping tunes and was pre-released on April 25th at an acoustic show in the Virgin Megastore downtown Chicago. The official CD Release show will be Friday August 10th at the Hideout in Chicago. The album is thoughtfully layered and weaves an array of instruments into the mix including pedal steel, cello, and saw without overshadowing the foundation of the record. The flow is smooth and the songs are solid. Suburbs on The Moon boasts a bona fide tone that much of today's over-compressed music is lacking.

i love loose ends and fourth dimension. chicago was
pretty catchy too. i don\'t know how i feel about this
country stuff though. i mean i respect the ability to
spread across genres but i thought loose ends and
fourth dimension were really innovative. idk, what are
other people saying?

DudeoftheDay77

but love lacks commitment and faith lacks vision and
religion is full of hypocrits and the spacemen are
closer to God
