Boston, Massachusetts-based instrumental post-metal outfit Lesotho is preparing to release their long-awaited third studio album, “A Flashing on Plain Glass”, confirming the album for release on March 13th, 2026, and dropping the album’s lead single, cover art, and more.
The follow-up to their 2023-release second LP, “Through the Dying Light”, Lesotho’s “A Flashing on Plain Glass” album sees guitarist Kyle Loffredo, bassist Cliff Cazeau, and drummer Dan DeLucia once again collectively creating an emotive and stirring album. The nearly thirty-minute record delivers five immersive new songs act more as movements, seamlessly transitioning from cathartic melodies to monolithic swells. The album represents themes of impermanence and inevitable change in the world.
To capture “A Flashing on Plain Glass”, Lesotho returned to The Bridge Sound & Stage Music (Isis, BEDTIMEMAGIC, Miracle Blood) where the album was recorded and mixed by Alex Allinson, as with both prior albums. The record was mastered by Carl Saff at Saff Mastering (Cursive, Fu Manchu, Modern Life Is War) and completed with artwork by Thibault Landemaine of the Jack Hillside Collective.
Alongside the news of “A Flashing on Plain Glass” and its imminent arrival, Lesotho’s members collectively state: “In a place we are increasingly finding it difficult to call our own, ‘A Flashing on Plain Glass’ was created as a piece of solid ground for us to stand on. These five tracks symbolize a world of inevitable change and the search to find an honest beauty among chaos”,
