ADD TO CART

A sold-out tour-only CD-R release from Baltimore's Ecstatic Sunshine that we managed to get a very small quantity of for Crucial Blast. I've been in love with this band since I saw them open for Earth about a year ago in Baltimore; just two dudes, Matt Papich and Dustin Wong, playing two guitars through two amps, and soaring through joyous, spazzy, fastpaced guitar instrumentals that remind me of a super catchy indie/hardcore band, like old school Dinosaur Jr. at their poppiest, ripped free from the constraints of a rhythmic backline and jettisoned into the ether, their clean, undistorted guitars interlocking into complex melodic minatures and then untangling again to race off in different directions.

This tour CD-R features a bunch of re-recorded songs off of their "Spiral" CD-R, with titles like "Wavechop", "Crystal In The Sky", "Ramontana", and "Perrier", clockwork jams of beatless melodic 'core and Allman Brothers merging with free-floating SST Records dreams. Packaged in a flashy screenprinted oversize wallet, and hand-numbered out of 50 copies !!!
