Album Notes

*SONS is a Chapel Hill / Carrboro band featuring former members of SUNTAN (Kimchee Records) and A Problem of Alarming Dimensions. Viracochas is a must have record for those that dig Swervedriver style shoegaze, early 90s rock like Built to Spill and Seam, and the haphazardness of the 13th Floor Elevators. It's big guitars and rolling bass lines- rock fused with elements of psych pop and indie quirkiness.

Reviews:

"droning guitars, heavily delayed vocals and a drunken swagger that verges closely on psychedelic drug rock. It's hard to deny killer guitar riffs like those heard on wall-of-sound rave-ups... Brian Jonestown Massacre meets Pink Mountaintops." Lazy i

"...juxtaposing kaleidoscopic psychedelics and resplendent tones with sundried melancholy and bleached atmospheres. songs vacillate between reverb-soaked shoegazer drift and agile hook construction." The Independent

"Even at its murkiest, most suffocating density, Viracochas is entirely pleasant. The band envelops its listeners, lulling them into a trance and capturing their attention such that at the end of "Cielo," the album's final track, the abrupt silence is deafening." The Daily Tar Heel
