Listen
Austin’s CLUB COMA are electrifying. Ebbing between dark electro -pop, high-octane rock, and a little bit of funk (sometimes all in the same song), the trio brings the party to the stage. And when you know the members come from Austin groups Ume, Boyfrndz, and Stiletto Feels, your eyes unfocus just enough to see the whole magic eye image.
After working with Spoon’s Jim Eno in the production seat for their debut album in 2023, their upcoming sophomore album receives the touch of Danny Reisch, who mixed the song around evacuations from the L.A. wildfires in January.
“Sunshine” is the full tamale when it comes to the moods of CLUB COMA: after a grand swell of an industrial opening, the floor opens on what you think is going to be a dark dance track, then boom, fuzzy guitar riffs spring into action, giving way to a high-energy solo before the songs backs down into a slick, funky bass solo. As the energy oscillates, your ear stays engaged, looking for the next trick or pivot.
“Sunshine” is the title track off CLUB COMA’s new album, out this summer.
