Brooklyn three piece Spotlights are back with their third album entitled Love & Decay. The partnership in love and life of Mario (guitar/vocals) and Sarah Quintero (bass/vocals) now officially joined by touring drummer Chris Enriquez. When Aaron Harris (ISIS/Palms) heard the Spotlights track 'Walls' he shared it with fellow Palms member and Deftones frontman, Chino Moreno. This in turn led to a tour with Deftones and shared stages with the likes of Melvins, Quicksand, Hum, Glassjaw and Pelican. Before long, Mike Patton was on the case to bring them to the Ipecac Recordings roster.

Throughout Love & Decay, the production is outstanding and even more impressive when you find out Mario handled these duties himself at his home studio. Mario explains the background to these nine songs, "The Age of Decay encapsulates everything we do on this record...The Juxtaposition about love against this backdrop of a world that can be hard to deal with. It's tangible, it's intense. It's beautiful. There's an impending darkness underneath everything and a sense of unease, but it's also honest and vulnerable."
