Sunset Rubdown: Random Spirit Lover Review

I think I would call myself an indie noob but it’s always about trying out new stuff. In the case of Sunset Rubdown it simply went by me that I never heard about them (they were on sites I frequent a lot). A couple of bonuses that the band is Canadian and I look forward to having more of a Canadian flavor on this website.

Anyway with Random Spirit Lover, the first listen through probably didn’t go over smoothly and it starts with a great song “Mending of the Gown” showing absolutely great instrumentals. All the way through this album there are songs that really got me addicted, usually after the second listen. I think this album is pretty good all the way throughout and picking of which songs you like is of course based on taste.

On a rating scale, I wouldn’t call this album perfect but pretty close to it. It doesn’t capture my fascination completely and I’ll give it a 4.75 out of 5.

Here are some random tracks that I dug:

Up On Your Leopard, Upon The End of Your Feral Days by Sunset Rubdown


Winged/Wicked Things by Sunset Rubdown
