Well the first Sleepy Sun record since Rachel Fannan’s departure is out, and it’s certainly a different sounding band. I think their acoustic numbers have suffered for lack of Fannan’s laid-back vocals, but the band’s guitar work is probably their best so far, opting for tight blues riffs as often as spaced-out psychedelic chords. Maybe more often.
I really wish I owned a vinyl copy of Sleepy Sun’s Fever because I’d love to hang it on my wall. It’s so pretty looking. The music’s pretty too, packing the band’s psychedelic sound into a tighter package. For example, there’s no super annoying flute screeching over their delicate acoustic songs like there was on Golden Artefact. Even though I haven’t spent as much time with this album, that fact alone makes it an improvement by many, many degrees.
