Sunless

Biography

Sunless is the second full-length album by English post-metal/post-rock band PSOTY. It was co-released by Candlelight Records, Spinefarm Records, and Universal Music Group on 13 September 2019, on compact disc, double 12-inch vinyl, and digitally. The album features the singles "Oil Blood", which was released on 26 July 2019, and "King of Ephyra", which was released a week ahead of the album on 6 September 2019. The album was written and recorded with guitarist and vocalist Scott Gowan, bass guitarist Steve McKenna, drummer Dale Vinten, and guitarist Adrian Lawson. Sunless was tracked during February and March 2019, with producer Jonny Renshaw at Bandit Studios, where the band had also recorded its debut full-length, Fragments of Uniforms, six years prior. It is the band's first release under its abbreviated name, PSOTY, as it was officially shortened from Pet Slimmers of the Year in August 2014. It is also the band's first release as a four-piece, as second guitarist Adrian Lawson joined the line-up in October 2016. Due to its members living in various countries of Europe at the time of the album's release (and during its composition), and with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic shortly afterward, PSOTY was unable to tour and only played a single concert to promote Sunless. The album-release show was held at the Nambucca in London on 7 December 2019; as of 2024, it remains the band's most recent live event.
