“Many bands write really good biographies, we prefer to write really good songs.” Says the band. And indeed, their music speaks volumes, transcending language barriers and connecting with audiences on a primal level.
The band has only been around for a year or two. However, it’s worth looking at their history to understand who they are and what makes their music unique.
The journey started in 2019 as a vague concept brewing in a cozy corner bar in Essen, accompanied by the refreshing taste of Stauder beer. That rainy spring evening brought together three young men, each boasting decades of musical expertise. Sunshine’s roots trace back to the early 1990s when some of its members, along with their previous band, secured their first record deal with the German label, “Alveran Records,” making a name for themselves in the underground scene. Over the years, various members of Sunshine and their bands landed contracts with well-known industry names and toured Europe with acts like As I Lay Dying, Heaven Shall Burn, Napalm Death, and Burry Tomorrow.
From the remnants of these underground bands emerged something new and exciting. After just a few jam sessions, it became evident that Sunshine was on the brink of creating something extraordinary. However, the pandemic-induced slowdowns delayed Sunshine’s full realization until 2022. From the beginning, Sunshine has been all about honest and uncompromising melodic death grind. Their sound is a vibrant amalgamation of diverse subgenres, infused with hardcore and punk influences, evident in their music’s dynamic range. Whether intricate and harmonious or raw and aggressive, Sunshine’s songs always reflect the emotions that shape their identity.
