‘Secret Game’ marks our point of entry into SUNSET REBELLION’s artistic universe. It’s a rowdy, melancholic and gloomy place, yet one that we are happy to step into. Blending explosive distortions and haunting, dark lyricism, the Florida-based outfit offers a hard-hitting sonic imprint, a stream of hard rock and post-grunge goodness that’s hard to resist. Furthermore, while their sound is obviously fearless and bold, the band retains a certain relatability, with vocals standing solidly at the forefront of their records.
This is to say that SUNSET REBELLION thread the fine line between the fringe and the popular, targeting a rather wide audience. ‘Secret Game’ is the perfect evidence of that. Taken from the group’s upcoming second album, the piece unfolds lush and sultry storytelling, delivering the story of a “couple exploring a hidden world of pleasures together”. They keep it all shrouded in secrecy, adding to their unique, hidden bond that makes it feel all incredibly special. We cannot relate to it, but we are confident someone out there will…
Emerging from the Orlando cultural whirlwind, SUNSET REBELLION have now landed on a solid aural formula, one that still carries their chaotic guitar prowess while placing heightened attention to the lyrical matter. As mentioned previously, this is a move that will go a long way in taking the group to a bigger global audience. Just watch!
