Cloudland Canyon (the band, not the state park in Georgia) is the duo of Simon Wojan and Kip Uhlhorn. The band records for Kranky, so of course it trades in hazy, pretty atmospherics. The first track on Lie in Light is entitled "Krautwerk," showing the band to be heavily influenced by the likes of Neu! and Can. This is Cloudland Canyon's second release for Kranky, after last year's Silver Tongued Sisyphus EP; the band's debut album, Requiems der Nature 2002-2004, was released in 2006 on Tee Pee.
