Our Take

It's time to grab your shades and prepare to bask in the sonic brilliance that is Sunwatchers' latest offering, aptly titled "II." This New York-based quartet has managed to dial up the intensity on this sophomore effort, throwing in a heady mix of free jazz, psychedelic rock, and avant-garde experimentation that will leave your head spinning faster than you can say "solar flare".

From the opening track, "Herd of Creeps," it's clear that Sunwatchers are not here to play it safe. The blistering saxophone solos, frantic drumming, and scorching guitar riffs combine to create a sound that is as chaotic as it is infectious. It's a sonic rollercoaster that will have you questioning your own sanity by the time you reach the exhilarating climax of "Psychic Driving."

But it's not all high-energy chaos on "II." Tracks like "Greeneyed Pigmen (Get The Blade)" and "The Works" showcase the band's more contemplative side, with lush, swirling textures and introspective melodies that provide a welcome respite from the relentless onslaught of noise.

In conclusion, Sunwatchers have delivered a tour de force with "II." It's a wild, unpredictable ride that will challenge your notions of what music can be. So put on your sunglasses, crank up the volume, and get ready to be blown away. Trust us, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Sunwatchers

Sunwatchers are the kind of band that will make you question everything you thought you knew about psychedelic rock. Hailing from New York City, this quartet combines elements of free jazz, punk, and noise to create a sound that is truly mind-bending. With their searing guitar riffs, propulsive rhythms, and the occasional blast of saxophone, Sunwatchers are not your average band. Formed in 2012, Sunwatchers have quickly built a reputation as one of the most exciting and unpredictable live acts on the scene. Their performances are a rollercoaster ride of intensity and virtuosity, with the band members trading off solos like they're playing a game of musical hot potato. It's a sight to behold, and one that has earned them a dedicated following of fans who are always eager to see what they'll do next. But it's not just their live show that sets Sunwatchers apart. Their studio recordings are just as adventurous, with each album pushing the boundaries of what can be achieved with guitars, drums, and a healthy dose of reverb. Tracks like "Herd of Creeps" and "Psychic Driving" are sonic whirlwinds that will leave you feeling exhilarated and slightly disoriented, in the best way possible. In a music landscape that can sometimes feel a bit stale, Sunwatchers are a breath of fresh air. They're the kind of band that reminds you why you fell in love with music in the first place, and they're not afraid to take risks and defy expectations. Keep an eye on Sunwatchers – they're just getting started, and the journey is bound to be a wild one.
