- Genre- Glam Metal
- Bio- Traci Raven, named for the birds that lent their voice and power of flight, is and has always been an unparalleled and incredible vocalist and guitarist. When Shayn Wails, after meeting Traci at a roadside bar in Nevada, proved to be a parallel, the ensuing musical riot and destruction leveled the bar and earned them both a night in jail. After sharing a cell the two became fast friends, and decided to form the musical phenomenon that is now known to lesser mortals as Lytespeed Thunder. It was at this point that The Stikx arrived in a retooled VW camper and offered to drive them wherever they were headed on the condition that he play drums for them. Nobody knows how he knew who they were or where to find them. And so, by the will of the gods above, Lytespeed Thunder were brought together to rock!
- Any resemblance to a trio of marching band geeks from the 2007 yearbook of a midwestern high school is entirely coincidental
- 1+2 - Thunderstorm: An epic 9-minute retelling of the band's origin and their individual prowess in the fields of rocking, partying, and/or lovemaking
- 3+4 - Ridin' Hard: A hard rock rallying cry based around the band's experiences travelling across the country leaving satisfied lovers in their wake
- 1+2 - Record Song: Rock the Night (Loud, energetic track about the merits of loud guitars and a carefree attitude, specifically at night-time)
- 3+4 - Release Single: Thunderstorm b/w Rock The Night (Cover art is the band posing in silhouette atop a cliff, lit from behind by a fork of lightning)
- 1+2 - Record Song: All Mine (A love song with a slightly heavy chorus, about the inevitable devoted love that befalls Traci's most devoted groupies)
- 3+4 - Record Song: Creature of the Night (Each of the band are described in various terms of belonging to the midnight hours. Fun Fact: The Stikx is a dhampir)
- Week 1+2 - Record Song: In The Dark (Heavy track about how anonymity and the cover of night both allow you to be yourself and are a test of true character)
- Week 3 - Record a Cover: Foreigner's "Jukebox Hero"
- Week 4 - Photoshoot (Coverage of Traci and Shayn doing everyday things - perching with a flock of blackbirds on a rooftop, playing golf with strippers, buying groceries, etc. In each picture The Stykx is standing, arms folded, somewhere in the background, staring passively at the camera)
- Week 1+2 - Record a Song: Hellbender (Epic ballad recounting Traci's journey into Hell to bargain for the soul of a lover in exchange for dooming the man who killed her. Satan acquiesces in the face of the Raven, the murderer is driven by cunning and witchcraft into sin and death, the lover is saved, and Shayn has a kickin' solo towards the end)
- Week 3+4 - Publicity: Their creative and carnal energies burned out, The Thunder elect to spend the next fortnight recharging their batteries by spending their time volunteering from homeless shelter to homeless shelter. Once their label finds out they insist on sending people to cover this)
- Week 1-4 – Release Album: Feel It (Cover is a shot of the band, up close, standing against a brick wall. Shayn appears to be in the throes of ecstasy, The Stykx has a wide, lopsided grin with his arms folded, and Traci in the center is stood seductively arched, hands against the wall. The album title is written, stylised to look like lipstick, at the bottom of the frame, over Traci's crotch. The reverse of the case shows the other side of the wall, graffitied with an image of a raven, the phrase “The Stykx was there”, and the tracklist, which is as follows)
