When a band announces their split before their then automatically final release, it turns into less of a record and more of a eulogy instead, and much more focus on the song meanings and lyrics is an inevitable outcome from this too. Lydia‘s farewell bid to the world of music ‘Assailants’ is very much a final cleaning of the slate and letting those final feelings out to their fans before diappearing amidst the rest of those who stopped before them.
With member after member leaving the band running up to the release of ‘Assailants’, the demise of Lydia was an inevitable occurance, but in doing so remaining member Leighton Antelman‘s moaning vocals have never been more sincere in the band’s 7 year career.
