when i ordered my last bongripper record from newly discovered kozmik artifactz mailorder, i was adding some more stuff indeed. in order to do so i roamed around the shop and came across an interesting item that looked quite familiar. it was a record by glowsun. i actually didn't know any song of them but something like two years ago glowsun and me crossed paths.
i ordered their second record 'eternal season' for a friend via discogs. he hadn't have an account and so i helped out. at the time i wasn't into any stoner metal and so it never came to my mind to check them out, even though i always admired the lovely looks of the record when i was at my friends place. now two years later, with a brand new view on stoner stuff, i got curious and hit the net for some music.
i found the official video for 'behind the moon' and was blown away. glowsun plays some sophisticated psych/doom/stoner metal, not unlike elder but not that dreamy, more ominous. great music anyhow! although this album is almost completely instrumental, i love how they work with the theme of time through sound samples and song-titles. the ticking clock at the beginning of the first song 'arrow of time' somehow gives me the creeps and is therefore so good.
this third album was released via napalm records from austria. there must be some friendly connection between napalm rec and kozmik artifactz, because it is not the first time kozmik got a mailorder exclusive of a napalm release. for 'beyond the wall of time' kozmik offered a pressing on 180gr neon orange vinyl out of 100 copies. kozmik sold out on their copies but napalm got you covered with a blue version. napalm records. 2015.
