Sun Atoms
Let There Be Light (black)
Sun Atoms is the debut solo effort from Portland, Oregons Jsun Atoms. Produced by The Dandy Warhols guitar pedal maestro Peter Holmstrom and mixed by Londons legendary Stephen Street (Blur, The Smiths, The Cranberries). The rich pedigree is evident in this 8 song LP. The album opener is a kaleidoscopic collaboration with The Black Angels Alex Maas on vocals and Mellotron. This album is an incredible combination of psychedelic dark wave and postmodern pop due in part to some first-rate guest performances including the leader of Brooklyns The Vandelles, Jasno Swarez, Gregg Williams (Sheryl Crow, Blitzen Trapper), St. Louis beat boss drummer Bob Mild, and Sacramento punks Pets, to name a few. The genres bend and blend song to song through such luminary influences as Love and Rockets, Moon Duo, The Cure, Nick Cave, Spiritualized, and Leonard Cohen. This LP is pressed on 140 gram Black vinyl, packaged in a Gatefold Sleeve and contains a download card
