Red Sun Atacama’s high-voltage psychedelia is back!
Desert punk locos Red Sun Atacama’s new album »Summerchild« is irradiated with the solar fuzz, acid riffs and telluric percussions that define the project. Their corrosive heavy psychedelic goes like a hallucinatory caravan guided by condors and visions. Between psychedelic ritual, punk urgency and incandescent desert rock, »Summerchild« ranges from hypnotic ballads of relentless groove to ultra-catchy outbursts. All under the protective eye of the sun-oracle, which offers the Franco-Chilean combo the perfect outlet for their hectic daily lives. Will the burning spirit finally find peace?
Born in 2014 in Paris, France, Red Sun Atacama combine desert rock psychedelia and punk fury. Volcanic and wild, Chilean Atacama Desert mesmerizes the band as much as it inspires them. Their sound is driven by its beyond compare magnetism. They self-produce their first EP »Part 1« in 2015, and release a bubbling debut album untitled »Licancabur« in 2018 via More Fuzz Records. The record definitely establishes the trio’s unique, raw and insolent style.
On stage, Red Sun Atacama fully manage to share the same hypnotic outburst than on their studio efforts: they already performed in various European countries alongside international heavyweights such as Uncle Acid & The Dead Beats, Mars Red Sky, Planet Of Zeus, Steak, Slift…
In 2022, Red Sun Atacama sign to Mrs Red Sound (Mars Red Sky’s imprint) for the release of their sophomore studio album. The explosive new album »DARWIN« is driven by an overflowing desert rock, stoner and punk energy, and inspired by the Andean magic. It was recorded and mixed by Amaury Sauvé (Birds In Row) at The Apiary studio (Laval, France). Sauvé also gave them a hand with additional percussions. The record came out on June 17th, 2022 on Mrs Red Sound Records.
