''Lights of Endangered Species'' is the fifth studio album by Matthew Good, released on May 31, 2011. The album's first single, "In a Place of Lesser Men", was released via SoundCloud two months prior on March 21, 2011. Subsequently, "Non Populus" was also released four days later. Five days ahead of the album release, the entire album was available to stream online via ExploreMusic.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Matt Good: Lights of Endangered Species Album Premiere )〕 The album debuted at #5 on the Canadian Albums Chart. The album was nominated for Rock Album of the Year at the 2012 Juno Awards.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2012 Rock Album of the Year )〕 ==Background== Produced by Warne Livesey, ''Lights'' marked the sixth album the two had worked together on (including Matthew Good Band discography). While Good's lyrics on ''Lights'' remain socio-political and personal in nature, the album marks a departure from Good's rock-driven style with layered arrangements and instrumentation featuring horns, strings, woodwinds and piano – a reflection of Good's musical upbringing and tastes, listening to big bands from Glenn Miller to Basie, as well as modern jazz, such as Miles Davis and Mingus. He also singled out the horn section on Simon and Garfunkel's "Keep the Customer Satisfied" as a particular influence for the album's fifth track, "Zero Orchestra". The musical style also marked an effort from Good and Livesey to create something that was not necessarily "commercially viable", an idea that the two first discussed when they were mixing 1997's ''Underdogs''. Good has recalled writing what would be the eighth track on ''Lights'', "Set Me on Fire", as having re-energized the concept.〔 Good and Livesey first experimented with a Vancouver-based group of musicians to play the horns on the album, but described the results as "horrifying". They subsequently contacted Nashville-based Terry Townson, who they ultimately stuck with, on the advice of The Odds' Craig Northey. Townson, in turn, brought in other musicians to complete the recording. ''Lights'' also features Good's daughter singing in the background on "Shallow's Low".
