SUNSET RUBDOWN is first and foremost the solo project of Canadian SPENCER KRUG, the indefatigable mastermind also working with WOLF PARADE and SWAN LAKE. What began as a solo project quickly morphed into a band, and Dragonslayer is now their third album, recorded in the fall of 2008. A new masterpiece. Its complexity unfolds with repeated listens, behind the polished production and raw, feverish musicality. An uncommon pop album that stirs the senses, where the high-strung leader and exceptional songwriter plunges us into hallucinatory landscapes, always as elusive and troubling. Somewhere between ARCADE FIRE and OF MONTREAL.
