Bleep

Frazzled by the heat and scorched by the sun, Sleepy Sun’s album, 'Spine Hits' sounds like it was made right there under the beating Californian sun. The band return with Dave Catching of both Queens of the Stone Age and Eagles of Death on board. Moments deviate between languid, tender moments of dreamy haze, such as on 'Boat Trip', to iron-clad, heavy steamrollers (albeit interspersed with snapshots of warmth) and buoyant, tightly produced pop-rock songs, such as 'V.O.G.'.
