Sunflowers bring back the goods with their third LP, Endless Voyage. A conceptual sci-fi record about the end of the world, the rise of the machine, the feeling of doubt about one's individuality and the acceptance of chaos. The concept story tells us the story of Studiomaster, an entity seeking out the decadent minds of mankind by warping their reality from within, as it pulls you into its own world. As you feel the calmness settle in, you begin to question your surroundings and the journey goes on until you can't really draw the line between your perception of what's real or what the machine wants you to believe it's real. A simulation where the user is always kept away from the world around, filtering whatever distracts him from the machine's plan. Don't get distracted. He might be hearing you think. You will be taken on a voyage with its ups and downs and you will beg to do it again and again. Listening to it, the classic psych punk, noisy pop sound that the band has been preaching has been polished and tamed (to some degree) while it's contrasted with the fresh air of exploration into their sound. A ping pong game between pulsing drums, bouncy bass, reverbed echoes for vocals and loud, schizophrenic guitars meet a more mellow, smoothed electronic compositions that go deep into the band's playlist nuggets. Truly a rollercoaster of a record, Endless Voyage runs smoothly through its 40 minutes, pulling you in and out of a trance you're not sure you're into. Then morning comes and you've realized you have been fully gripped by it, as it leaves a howling hiss in your ears and possibly in your soul. The band recorded it during the summer of 2018 and the spring of 2019 between Arda Recording Co., Casa do Soto in Arouca and their house in Porto. After brewing it together, they are now waiting the approval of several entities to unleash the sonic mayhem upon all through the good people of Poitiers' Only Lovers Records. And what a joy it is to contemplate it
