White/Light came by WNYU to record a session last weekend. The band is based in Chicago and artfully combines droning noise, interesting synth and pedal work, and guitar solos (making good use of what's known as the "Smashing Pumpkins" guitar pedal. They played with Steve Shelley of Sonic Youth on drums - the first time the group had played together. Here's the link to the session:
