Heath McCurdy of Epicure is a genteel chap, noticeably subdued
but amazingly, chosen by their publicist as the most talkative
out of all the quiet mice in the band to have a yarn about

Sounds
Like Sunset Invisible Architecture/Shock
On
every level, in every way, this is a truly gorgeous recording.
With infectious melodies, driving bass lines, searing guitars
and dreamy vocals 'Invisible' contains every ingredient for
the most delicious indie rock and when it comes together it
is just so, so right. Yes, Sounds Like Sunset are heavily
influenced by the gigantic swirling guitars and luscious melodies
of the shoegazing bands of the late 80's and early 90's; however;
'Invisible' is not just another regurgitation of retro rock.
Every band aims to be original, but this actually is genuinely
different from the other offerings in today's musical marketplace.
