An overcast, dreary, very British Tuesday; a good day to talk about an exciting alternative band from Sydney, Australia.
The Sunpilots.
We’re absolutely loving this sound. They’re kind of fusing the whole alternative rock thing, (think Incubus, Queens of the Stone Age, System of a Down) with an almost Kate Bush kind of artistry. Lyrically, melodically, instrumentally.. everything about this is band is really *!&%^$* good. The video to go with ‘The Piper’s Mirror’ sealed the deal for us. Check it out.
Go quickly to their Twitter page and hit Follow, then head over to their Website and grab what you can. The album is free to download. Play it loud. They also let you peak into their everyday lives over on Instagram, and we’ll throw in a Facebook link for good measure (everyone loves a blue background). There’s plenty of info about the band on their website, and the more you read and listen, the more you’ll want to be involved.
A hard working, honest, dedicated, talented group of musicians. We’re only half way through their back catalogue and already thoroughly addicted. An awesome band. Refreshing, real, passionate, with a superb front man who offers outstanding, memorable vocals, and a warm, strong presence. If we pool together, maybe we can badger them enough that they’ll come over to the UK.
Dive in and learn the sound. Time waits for no one.
