As acting guitar hero extraordinaire for the Dream Pop crowd, Wareham's vision of weightless, guitar-based pop -- as complemented by jiggling rhythms and his own signature lyrical sarcasm -- came to beautiful fruition on Luna's 1992 debut <i>Lunapark</i>, which featured the driving "Anesthesia" and the elegiac "Goodbye." Subsequent Luna records throughout the 1990s reinforced the band's mastery of space-pop with a jarring rhythmic edge, the pinnacle of which was reached on 1995's glorious <i>Penthouse</i>. That album's best moments -- the smooth-as-fresh-pavement "Chinatown," the ringing guitar hook on "Sideshow By The Seashore," and the arrestingly dynamic "Freakin' And Peakin'" -- portray Luna at their apogee as a most forceful, yet elegantly graceful pop outfit. Four years later, they began covering Guns N' Roses songs on record, a development that usually spells the beginning of the end for any band. - Charles HodgkinsDream Popen720Sun, 27 Dec 2009 08:34:43 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.63468&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fluna%2Fplaylists.rss In the wake of Galaxie 500's acrimonious breakup following their 1990 swansong <i>This Is Our Music</i>, Dean Wareham formed Luna to satiate his poppermost desires.
