Sunlun – Ceaseless Exhausting Pursuit (Sengaja Records)

Have you ever heard something about german crust bands? If you haven’t, you can check guys from Sunlun. As for their music, they are a good example of Swedish Crust School. To be honest, at first I was thinking that it is the next copy of Wolfbrigade, but then I had changed my mind. Their songs are good mixture of crust, hardcore, death metal and even a little bit of doom with black metal (we can call it neocrust) I guess, cover of album could say a lot about music inside. You can appreciate fight of wolves on it, good job of artist. There is the poster for those, who like to bomb their walls. All these visual arts are good start for feeling the atmosphere of release. And then we have 10 quite different songs. D-beat and aggressive guitar riffs are intertwined with melancholic melodies. You can find there very atmospheric small sound fragments of wind, rain, etc.. Maybe someone will say that this music is too melodic, but I think it is as much melodic as it should be. Also I want to mention, that guys did this release very balanced, doom and black parts look like very harmonic and are making feelings of finished work. The last blackened crust song Dysfunctional is the final bloody point of whole album.
