"Lubec's upcoming album, The Thrall, quickly found a place on my list of most-anticipated releases... something immediately infectious about the blending of jangly and distorted guitar noise with overlapping boy/girl vocals. They bring to mind the early days of Slumberland Records and acts like Black Tambourine, Lilys, Velocity Girl, and the handful of other C86-influenced groups hailing from that fertile Washington, DC, scene of the early '90s.”

- The Portland Mercury

"I love bands that have a sound that begs to be heard. The latest to come to my attention is Portland-based Lubec"

- Fensepost Blog

"2014 Portland music preview: 20 albums to watch for."

- The Oregonian

"Big, heavy guitars carve out twisting songs that at times seem to change direction with artful effortlessness."

- Oh! Sweet Nuthins Blog

"Sunburn!"

"Late Bloomer" is the lead track from our recently completed cassette EP, called Concentration, and out on February 5th via Touchy Feely Records. 

It follows The Thrall, our September 2014 debut full-length, and serves as a short teaser before we enter the studio to record a new batch of songs for our next full-length with Dylan Wall (Craft Spells, Weed, Naomi Punk) in the first week of March!

The set was engineered and produced by Robert Comitz (Hornet Leg, Marriage + Cancer, K Records), who did the same work on our previous release. The Thrall was listed as an 'Essential Portland Album of 2014' by The Oregonian and received positive reviews. One or more of our members are active in other local bands within the same scene, including Havania Whaal and Wet Trident.

"So now when I pry my eyes open to play a bit of a mindless video game, I will also duct tape the headphones to my ears, glue the volume control on the highest setting with Lubec in the player, and just let it all go into blissful meltdown" - Tiny Mix Tapes

"Lubec blazes through the thick, fuzzy clouds of the Pacific Northwest with driving, melodic tunes." - Impose

"They are among the city's elite loud-pop heavyweights." - The Portland Mercury

"Lubec is a band that bounces well off the walls, forming the occasional bruise or bloody mark, but usually in the shape of something beautifully deceiving" - Impression of Sound
