Ordinary Love

It’s never too late if you bring your mates
Lovers connect at a silent pace
You’re running scared while you disconnect
Kill your mate at your convenience 

Ghostly sounds at the factory
Partial love of the industry
Criminals of an elegance
No one speaks of deliverance

A man machine now it feels detached
A mass effect of the modern eye
They must protect what is more or less
Oblivion with romantic haze

It’s much too late for the black machine
Metal arms turning seventeen
A renaissance for the modern man
Fall in love with their new demise

02 Shift

So many words have been unsaid. 
Built in the dark to contemplate. 
A sound for ears but lost in sight. 
So quietly, deliberately, deliberately! 
They give consent to the unknown. 
So violently, you doublespeak in front of me. 

​So take this night fall to the horizons of godless fortune. 
And spew your scriptures of endless patter, get on your knees now. 
So they won't believe you, no, they won't believe you. 
They won't believe you, no, no-one believes you! No-one. 
​ 
Your escapades have many sides. 
Your batting eyes say all I know, say all I know. 
The stratosphere of cutting lies. 
Are captured here and visible, they're visible. 
Epic your mind and vast ego. 
Echoes a sound of love and hate, it's not too late. 
​ 
To take this night fall to the horizons of godless fortune. 
And spew your scripture of endless patter, get on your knees now. 
So they won't believe you, no, they won't believe you. 
They won't believe you, no, no-one believes you! No-one at all. 

As cold as ice, your cunning eyes. 
Depraved, impulsed, you're breathing hard, demoralized. 
The silent space where you belong. 
You're standing there, you feel it now, you feel it now

Doublespeak

Recursive, aggressive, it locks to your cell system. 
Genetic, mutation, it spreads in all directions. 
If there is hope, it flows in your stream. 
But they don’t know, vaccine HD3. 
​ 
I’ve got a secret to tell. 
Let’s meet in the place where you hide your gun. 
Dead while the other’s alive. 
The future is a means to an end in sight. 
Zombie bird, you’re a zombie bird. 
Zombie birds, you’re all zombie birds. 
​ 
We're running from cities, through empty streets and silence. 
I've killed them, in cold blood, though I am not a killer. 
But there is hope, it flows in your stream. 
And they must know, vaccine hd3.

@Echolust - Veldisa (Album Release 11/18/2016)

Philip was about to give it all up, annoyed and frustrated with the lack of finding the right people to write music with. One summer, upon recording a few demos in 2012, he met Armond through friends at an #EchoandTheBunnymen show in Los Angeles. Armond did bass work for a #TheSmiths -like sounding band. But after a few recorded tracks, there was no more motion and movement and they disbanded soon thereafter. Philip and Armond exchanged information and a couple months later started recording songs. The goal was to create a five track EP release. However, instead of an EP, they decided to write an entire LP record, and soon sought the talents of a lead guitarist. While the music that was being created sounded great, there was an element missing. Philip told Armond that the tracks needed a sound that was more distorted, something of a mixture of #CocteauTwins, #Slowdive and #MyBloodyValentine. One night, Philip was Dj-ing at a small dive bar when he met Tony. During a Cocteau Twins track, Tony approached Philip and they soon started talking about music. That’s when Philip knew he was the right guy for the job. Tony’s musical background consists of having recorded work for bands, Pile Up and Russian Bones, however stalled in 2001 due to death, drug addiction and personal bickering. But soon, all three were recording new material.

All three bring very specific elements to the table. Armond’s basslines are reminiscent of a beloved 80′s gloomy English Post Punk era, cold, delayed and distant, Tony’s experimental shoegaze textures captures a wildly beautiful but contained distortion, while Philip’s guitar, synth and lyrics tell stories about a sense of personal loss, wonder and moving on.

Echolust - Cherry Dancer (Veldisa)

Echolust is an American band formed in Long Beach, California in 2011. The band consists of musicians Philip Obando, Armond Angeles and Tony Lee Jackson. Together, they recapture and reinterpret important eras of subculture essence that has musically influenced them their entire lives, through personal point of views, perspectives, experiences, gains and losses. 



Philip was about to give it all up, annoyed and frustrated with the lack of finding the right people to write music with. One summer, upon recording a few demos in 2012, he met Armond through friends at an Echo and The Bunnymen show in Los Angeles. Armond did bass work for a Smiths-like sounding band. But after a few recorded tracks, there was no more motion and movement and they disbanded soon thereafter. Philip and Armond exchanged information and a couple months later started recording songs. The goal was to create a five track EP release. However, instead of an EP, they decided to write an entire LP record, and soon sought the talents of a lead guitarist. While the music that was being created sounded great, there was an element missing. Philip told Armond that the tracks needed a sound that was more distorted, something of a mixture of Cocteau Twins, Slowdive and My Bloody Valentine. One night, Philip was Dj-ing at a small dive bar when he met Tony. During a Cocteau Twins track, Tony approached Philip and they soon started talking about music. That's when Philip knew he was the right guy for the job. Tony's musical background consists of having recorded work for bands, Pile Up and Russian Bones, however stalled in 2001 due to death, drug addiction and personal bickering. But soon, all three were recording new material. 



All three bring very specific elements to the table.

It’s been one of the more curious things about Los Angeles: Here, in the land of sun, sand and self-importance, a vital vein of post-punk music — and its shoegaze, darkwave and industrial variants — has always flowed freely. Echolust are among the latest to indulge in shadowy soundscapism. The Long Beach duo of Philip Obens and Armond Angeles this spring released a seven-song collection titled “Fourier Series” that sounds like it came from some gloomy U.K. city in the 1980s. Which is a good thing for fans of Joy Division, the Cure, Echo & the Bunnymen and inhabitants of that musical lineage. Obens handles the singing, guitar and synths here, Angeles the bass, and together they’ve nailed the foreboding but cathartic beauty of the music.
