Album Notes & Community Reviews

Uncharacteristically adding a brass section to their trademark fuzz-drenched squall, 'Under a Billion Suns' finds the Seattle grunge pioneers energized by sharp political frustration. The record maintains their classic, sloppy garage-punk ethos while delivering biting, satirical critiques targeting the Bush-era administration and modern media.
