New Jersey’s SUNROT is preparing to release their first full length album under the
Prosthetic Records banner. The Unfailing Rope is due on April 7 and comprises eight tracks
of devastating sludge and noise - and promises to afford SUNROT the attention that they so
richly deserve.
At times The Unfailing Rope seemed to be a cursed project; recorded no less less than three
times before hitting the jackpot with its final iteration, completing the record was a hardfought battle. Vocalist Lex Santiago was hospitalised between the first and second
recordings, suffering from a psychotic episode. Although it may have seemed like an
albatross around their necks, The Unfailing Rope eventually provided salvation and catharsis
for SUNROT in ways they had never anticipated.
The Unfailing Rope sessions were captured by Scot Moriarty at Backroom Studios in
Rockaway, New Jersey, and later mastered by Magnus Lindberg of Cult of Luna. The trial
and error of earlier sessions led to a more precise execution of their vision, a more confident
approach and a ultimately more live and organic sounding record than they’d originally
anticipated. Their take on sludge is adrenalized by the addition of samples, noise and
experimentalism. With guest musicians including Bryan Funck (Thou), Emily McWilliams
(Silver Godling), and Blake Harrison (Pig Destroyer) adding embellishments to the core
SUNROT sound the final result is electrifying.
