| Song |
"Galaxy of the Lost" is the first single from Lightspeed Champion's album Falling Off the Lavender Bridge. The single was originally released on 7" vinyl by Domino Records on 16 July 2007 and then later re-released on 7" vinyl and CD on 12 May 2008.
On 1 February 2008, in his official blog, Hynes stated that the next single (after "Tell Me What It's Worth") would probably be a re-issue of "Galaxy Of The Lost",[2] stating : I have no problem with re-issues... as long as there is reason, and I really like this song and video, and it only came out on limited 7 inch... goo'times.[2]
"Galaxy of the Lost" features drums, bass, pedal steel and string arrangements from Omaha musicians Nate Walcott and The Faint's drummer Clark Baechle, as well as backing vocals from Emmy the Great. Also, "Waiting Game" features additional vocals by Derek Pressnal from Tilly and the Wall, and guitars from Mike Mogis.[3]
Music video
The music video was directed by Ferry Gouw of the Semifinalists, and features Dev sitting petting a cat, which then suddenly turns into an unusual monster puppet, before other monsters come to listen to him playing guitar, eventually wrapping their tentacles around him and taking over, only for them to suddenly disappear, leaving only the original puppet cradled in Dev's arms, which then turns back into a cat.
