Paparazzi Lightning is the 2006 album by Ghostland Observatory, the Austin, Texas duo of frontman Aaron Behrens, who sings and sometimes straps on a guitar, and Thomas Ross Turner, who handles drums or synthesizer. It follows Delete.delete.i.eat.meat and comes before Robotique Majestique.
Their sound has been tagged as a blend of electro, rock and funk, and even as "electro-dance soul rock", which is about as good a shorthand as any: machine beats and synth throb with a rock singer strutting on top. "Sad Sad City" is the track from it that made the countdowns.
