SUNSCREEM HQ notes (2018)
With their second album “Change or Die,” Sunscreem showed their unique ability to combine underground attitudes and underground rhythms with a full-blooded pop sensibility. The album contains the two enormous club anthems “When” and “Looking at You” which sealed their reputation on the burgeoning American rave scene and kept them busing playing live in America for the best part of a year.
The message was also spreading across Europe and record release, tours and festivals followed in Belgium, Holland, Finland, Norway and Denmark.
“Change or Die” contains four UK top 30 singles including “Exodus” and the ever-poignant “White Skies”.
