Suncity Records


Recommended Posts

Let me be one of the first to congratulate David Moors on putting out a fine product in the way of his first release on Suncity Records. I have received the Blue Tears release and it is one helluva nice piece.

 

Excellent multi-page booklet complete with liner notes by Greg Fulkerson...* I believe*.....along with nice photos of the band, etc.

 

Silver pressed cd...with a very nice 'heat sealed' cd label.

 

The tunes are excellent quality....and I have been enjoying the hell out of them!!

 

 

A big thumbs up for Suncity Records' first release!!

 

 

Congrats David!

What Jim said B) I'm really liking the quality every aspect of this disk has taken from the cd itself, to the booklet and the production. Working with the band for the "reissue" or ISSUE since it was never officially released, was a good thing for the success of this piece :banger:

SUNCITY RECORDS ANNOUNCE SWINGIN' NEW SIGNING:

Suncity Records are extremely proud to announce the signing of Swingin' Thing.

Swingin' Thing ruled the strip back in the hey day but never had the chance to get a full-length album out until now. Suncity Records are putting together 2 full-length albums that 'are bound to kick your butt'.

The label says: "These albums are the perfect glam CD's, written about fast cars, summertime girls, partying and just havin' a good time. This material is bound to lift your spirits."

Signed to a Japanese label in the early 90's called Monster Productions, Swingin' Thing found themselves touring throughout Japan and ultimately, that's where they enjoyed most of their success.

The tracks the label will be releasing will be straight from DAT tapes and will undergo the re-mastering process. These glamsters did most of their recordings at A&R studios is Hollywood, which is the reason the production is of excellent quality.

Back in 1998, indie label Bombastic Plastic released a self-titled album by The Things, which were the same band only they had a more punkish influence to their music. Chris Penketh, the guitarist from Swingin' Thing was telling me that they always wanted to be a punk band but changed their sound to fit in with the whole hard rock boom. The label continues: "But not here, no punk influences! Everything you could want in a band from the Sunset Strip, gang backing vocals run supreme, guitar chops Satriani would be proud of, great attitude on the vocal ala Vince Neil. These guys had everything Motley Crue had and more but as we all know, justice wasn't served back in the late 80's, early 90's."

Check out a few sound samples of what is to come: Hazy, Lazy, Crazy Daze Of Summer, Better Left Unsaid, Groove Of Love and Coconut Cream.

A couple more samples are online at the label website. Release date information and further updates when available.

    • I have learned not to assume these kinda releases are stand alone so I won't be buying the digital single, that's for sure. Been bitten with that one before. And if it does end up being standalone, well the digital single will still be available later. I don't like buying anything digitally, so only do it when there is no other choice.
    • Fairh In You - Jack Russell
    • Eclipse played that same game when Apocalypse Blues came out.  They dropped that song as just a single and made no mention of an album at that point as far as I remember.  All they were doing was selling the 7 inch vinyl.  We know now though that they clearly knew a full album was coming as Erik said they basically were working on both albums at the same time and deciding which tracks would go on each album.  Granted, maybe they didn't know the full timing of album #2 at that point but they certainly knew one was coming. Maybe the same here.  Maybe will trickle out a few songs and then announce an album later this year or early next year when it's closer to release.
    • So, Danny posted how the song is doing on Spotify and someone asked if this means a new album soon. Danny just made vague replies and said "well there will be more stuff coming soon"
    • Funnily enough, I read that this afternoon when I went to add the album to my collection on the main page. I got the European version which has two bonus tracks ... if you don't have them, you really aint missing anything
    • Faith in the Heartland-Journey
    • Created and Posted this video recently in order to promote Ryder SRIII a little more.  I love this song, one of my personal favs from the record.   Be careful viewing at work though (NSFW), just for a couple of images in the video.   
    • Named my HH self after the song Auslander on the album Stain. Love that track. Really like the whole album. It's like Living Colour's "Slave to the Grind" or "Dog Eat Dog".
    • From Frontiers: TRACKLIST: 1 Awesome God 2 Stand Up 3 Warrior 4 There You Are 5 Speak His Name 6 Why God Brought Me Here 7 Praying 8 It's Up to You 9 Holy Moment 10 Leaning on the Cross 11 Jesus Christ --- When a musical family gets together to record, magic can happen and this is what the VAN ZANT’s are here for! Brothers Johnny and Donnie Van Zant (respectively current lead vocalist of Southern Rock icons Lynyrd Skynyrd and founding member of .38 Special) were able to find room in their busy schedules for the first time in 1998, recording their collaboration album “Brother to Brother”: a tribute to their late brother and Lynyrd Skynyrd original singer and founding member Ronnie. Such release was highly acclaimed between the press and fans worldwide and brought the duo to record a follow up album, simply entitled “II” in 2001. Their collaboration during the years did not stop as they tapped their feet in a more Country-oriented style with the release of “Get Right With the Man” (certified Gold in the USA in 2005) and later on with “My Kind of Country” in 2007. Now the brothers once again reinvent themselves, offering a Christian-themed album encompassing their Rock and Blues musical roots (and with a touch of Country for good measure). The result “Always Look Up” is made up of songs that will touch the listener’s heart and soul, with an emotional depth that is truly second to none in today’s musical landscape. Experience the soul touching that only the music from the Van Zant family, can provide. You will see why they are icons of the American South, and musical heroes to millions around the globe!
