Spotlights

**Spotlights** is the brainchild of husband-and-wife duo Mario and Sarah Quintero, a New York-based band serving up a hypnotic blend of shoegaze, doom metal, and post-rock. Since forming, they’ve carved a niche with their massive, fuzz-drenched soundscapes, pairing earth-shaking low-end riffs with ethereal vocals and dreamlike textures. Albums like *Love & Decay* (2019) and *We Are All Atomic* (2020) showcase their knack for balancing raw heaviness with fragile beauty, while 2023’s *Alchemy for the Dead* pushed their experimental edge further, earning praise for its haunting, layered production.

Known for intense live shows, Spotlights have shared stages with legends like The Melvins and Pallbearer, cementing their reputation as a force in the heavy music underground. Their work—including EPs like *Seance* and singles like “Hanging by Faith”—often explores themes of existentialism and emotional catharsis, wrapped in a sound that’s equally suited for headbanging and headphone introspection.
