Shadows and Dust is the fifth studio album by English-American new wave singer Lene Lovich. Released in 2005, it was her first album in 16 years, the preceding album being 1989's March. Like the previous album, this one was also recorded in Norfolk.[1] The album was produced by Mike Thorne and released on his own label, The Stereo Society.[2]
The record company made a mistake with the track listing: they intended to change the sequence of the tracks and updated the art work to reflect the new song order, but neglected to change the running order on the disc itself.[3]
Reception
Writing for
the Charleston Gazette said the album is "shocking in that Lovich seems not to have missed a beat. She sounds just as wonderfully strange as ever."[7] The Venus Zine review said "Lovich has created an album with an updated sound and a darker edge", describing the music as "somewhat goth, vaguely Siouxsie-like".[8]
