Sunset Mission

A repress of Bohren & Der Club Of Gore's classic masterpiece, the German horror-jazzmasters' third release continues the deadly, mellow bliss of previous albums. If Midnight Radio reminds you of being the alternate soundtrack to Twin Peaks, then Sunset Mission is without a doubt one of the discs permanently in the CD changer at the Black Lodge. Loungey, dark, crepuscular, and more austere than their previous works, Sunset Mission stands as a singular song cycle rather than a bundle of tracks. An elegant blend of sax, piano, bass, and guitar makes for a sublime mélange of darkness and smoky sensuality.
