Nocturne of Exploded Crystal Chandelier - CD

The first time Sun Airway's crackling pop sounds made their way through our speakers, we heard what felt like the lost soundtrack to the next Sofia Coppola film; atmospheric yet catchy, hazy but somehow vital and immediate. Sun Airway has hit on the sweet spot where infectious hooks and cerebral electronic pop intersect, pulling textural sound and pop songcraft into one. It is hard to imagine namedropping both the Strokes and Animal when describing a single band, but that is exactly what Pitchfork has done, while describing "Put the Days Away" and "Infinity, " two tracks from the band's debut.
