The Sunset Violent

Mount Kimbie

Sun-drenched guitars and motorik rhythms recorded in the California desert. A hazy, post-punk evolution that trades club basements for wide-open horizons.

It's like driving through the desert at dusk with a broken radio that only plays the coolest post-punk imaginable.

A sun-drenched, motorik haze that balances driving energy with a quiet, desert-induced melancholy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the way the motorik beat on Dumb Guitar locks into a hypnotic groove while the vocals remain detached and cool
the sudden bloom of distorted guitar textures that swallow the mix halfway through Shipwreck
the six-minute slow-burn finale of Empty and Silent where King Krule's guest vocals dissolve into a shimmering synth haze
