The Sun Also Sets

"The Sun Also Sets" may not contain the usual fang-in-cheek pageantry which most of Vampire Step-Dad's recent releases have been known for utilizing, in terms of an opening sitcom-like sketch and/or a centralized theme, but it still has some serious melodic bite regardless. Which is to say that, while you won't find many blood pumping guitar-laden tracks on this album, the synth-fueled melancholy melodies on here are plentiful and reaffirm Vampire Step-Dad as an accomplished maestro of emotions.
Favorite track: This Too Shall Pass.

Such a wonderful album lighter and dreamier than previous releases, but so uplifting! Vampire Step-Dad is evolving and getting better and better with each release transforming himself into one of the top retrowave artists in the world! Definitely my favorite album of his so far!!!
Favorite track: Seabreeze.

A beautiful track. The foundation of every love song from the 80s. Vampire Step-Dad is the Master at eliciting emotion from his music.
Favorite track: Hold On.

The 7th release from Vampire Step-Dad, The Sun Also Sets is an exploration on impermanence and longevity. The way a feeling, whether happy or sad, feels like it will last forever. Until it’s gone, and it feels like it was there only an instant. Optimism for pessimists, and pessimism for optimists.

Like a fast paced horror movie with guitars. Except you never want it to end. Until maybe their next album comes out.

Here kitty, kitty! The synthwave genius returns with a whole new batch of hooky, metal-edged songs that are more fun than a ball of yarn.
