Limited to 1000 Copies! Pressed on High Quality 180g Opaque Orange Double Vinyl!
A Place in the Sun is the second studio album by the American rock band Lit. Produced by Don Gilmore, the album was released on February 23, 1999 through RCA Records. It is their first release through a major label. The album peaked at #31 on the US Billboard 200 and spawned the successful singles "My Own Worst Enemy"--which reached #1 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart for eleven weeks--"Zip-Lock," and "Miserable."
The song "No Big Thing'," which originally appeared on their previous album Tripping the Light Fantastic, was re-recorded for this album. A Place in the Sun has been certified platinum in sales by the RIAA in the United States.
"...sonically more focused, with its buzzing guitars and singsong vocals. Lyrically, the Popoff brothers have a way with words, and they lyrics are full of ironic angst and clever self-deprecation. The playing is tight and crisp. A couple of songs really stand out: "Miserable" brings vocalist Jay Popoff's Elvis Costello impression to the fore and "Quicksand" sparkles." -Leslie Mathew, allmusic.com
