Treefight For Sunlight

Treefight for Sunlight are happy optimistic fellows. They play dynamic, cosmic, major-chord pop music swamped in swirly sustaining sounds, splashy cymbals, big reverbs, glistening organs and twinkly guitars, with dream-like harmonically-reinforced melodies and lyrics referencing space travel, nature, rain, big explosive love for mankind. Plus there is at least one actual use of the word ‘cosmic’. It’s great. It’s like the hippy version of Spinal Tap singing about the Flower People. It makes MGMT sound like the Sisters of Mercy. It’s like the music from a 1970s children’s science fiction programme about utopian space hippies from the future, who solve crime while consuming a mildly hallucinogenic fizzy pop. (Top fact: Treefight for Sunlight are from Scandinavia (Denmark) a region famed for both its forward thinking social model, ground-breaking detective fiction, and liberal attitude to drugs).
