SUNS OF THYME - Cascades (CD)

Berlin based Krautgaze brimming with melancholia while casting off genre clich s with a grin and an artfully nostalgic twist.

It is hard to imagine that something called Krautgaze could grow up in any other place than Berlin. In its glittering darkness, the city is a perfect breeding ground for a band like Suns of Thyme: The five-piece (masterfully) crashes together space rock, shoegaze, psych, death rock, and Velvet Underground on its (forthcoming) sophomore album Cascades. This ode to freethought is brimming with melancholy and a nonchalant greatness that will (comfortably) settle in behind your eyes - Suns of Thyme casts off genre clich s with a grin and an artfully nostalgic twist.
