release notes:
When it comes to being burned out, Sundowner are very nearly religious
about it. The Australian sludge band take an over-the-top approach to
nihilism and despondency, instilling a mystic quality in their
deep-rooted antipathy. As you listen to their new album Lysergic Ritual,
let the album's harsh approach to riffy sludge tap into your wellspring
of negativity. It's okay to feel bad, Lysergic Ritual says, offering up
some of the worst stuff the world has to offer as proof.
While you're feeling bad, though, at least you can get some headbanging
in. Sundowner pair blues-laced sludge with neck-snapping hardcore punk,
delivering chunky emphatic riffs in a blissful dichotomy of both fast and
slow. It's loud, abrasive, and carries itself with no shortage of swing.
No matter the state of the world and how terribly your day is going,
Sundowner promises one thing: whenever the drummer starts laying into the
ride bell, you're in for a hell of a riff.
The band comments:
This album represents exactly what SUNDOWNER is, straight to the point
sludge.
Heavy, bluesy, intoxicated riffs from slow and filthy to hardcore punk
speeds.
Lyrically ranging from substance abuse and drugs to serial killings and
cults, it's all around the nastiest side of humanity which reflects the
nature of the music perfectly.
Not to be confused with other bands with same name.
