All The Lights In The Sky is the debut album by the English Rock band Area 11. Released on January 31st 2013, the album was originally available exclusively on digital format, however as the band grew they began to distribute limited edition physical copies of the album[1]. All The Lights In The Sky was written and produced entirely by the band themselves and released by Yogscast Studios. Despite the band's strictly independent status, the album was a success and spawned a number of sell-out tours across the UK.

Recording

The Band formed in 2010[2] in Nottingham,England. After releasing their debut E.P "Blackline" the following year[3] they gained the attention of the popular YouTube gaming channel The Yogscast, who offered Sparklez* and Alex Parvis jobs as audio/video producers. Shortly after this the band began to record their debut album, and documented it's progress in a three part YouTube series[4]. In February 2012 the band released the album's first single: Knightmare/Frame, the single also included a Remix of Euphemia and a demo version of The Legendary Sannin. The band released the album digitally on January 31st 2013[5].
