F12-SESSION 018 // SUNVOLUME

In a live setting Sunvolume smash raw rock grit and fully saturated riffs into a heady mix. Tracks like "Riff City" deliver exactly what they promise, showcasing their swagger and status as a rising rock powerhouse. Impressively, this is all brought to life with simple, stripped-down gear, relying simply on volume and tight play to create a surprisingly massive and deeply textured wall of sound.

“We’ve been working on our first album that will have more of a cohesiveness to that, but up to that point we’re just releasing singles that explore the scope of our influences.”
