I'm surprised by your love of Sunbather, and I'm all for it.

I just got a copy of the last two Misty albums. I surprisingly really enjoy him.

Honestly I could listen to Sunbather repeatedly over and over and never get tired of it. It's so gazey and brutal, it's perfect for someone who likes Red House Painters and Darkthrone in the same listening session ;)

 

And Misty's lyrics are so fucked sideways but the music is so Partridge Family, it's warped in such a wonderful way that I was hooked the minute I heard Bored in the USA for the first time
