On the show today, I feature a new thing. Promotional witticisms aside, the term new thing is certainly overused, but I promise you that it applies to Sunfall.

The band's guitarist, Oliver Welzen-James, is a gem of a human being. He's kind, quick witted, and as I'm want to say, lovely. Oli is a lovely lovely man and a heck of a talent.

Sunfall's next single is coming out soon, but while we're waiting, I highly recommend you check out their latest releases, Quiet Kid and Harakiri. If you don't, you'll still hear me talk about them constantly during the show. Either way, you'll have to obey me and listen to the songs, because they represent a new force in musical ambition.

This is the most embarrassingly over the top interview of my career, and one I trust you'll enjoy. This is Sunfall on the Rockstar Superhero Podcast.
