Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *
Born out of fire and created with a South Welsh attitude, the latest band to come from that thriving musical part of the U.K., the superb sounding Shadow of the Sun have finally released their debut album, Monument, and it is a colossus.
The energy that comes through every pore, every fibre that the group possesses is drenched in the sweat and power of this recording. Loud, extremely loud and pulsating with class, Monument is an album that typifies the raw power that is available at the hands of musicians who strive to show that good music doesn’t slot into just one typical genre, it can be instinctive as it wants to be or as those creating it want it to be.
