saturn & the sun: harsh realities, broken bones & skull tones

Saturn and the Sun is a duo of electronic and psychic tension made up by Gothenburg residents Joachim Nordwall and Henrik Rylander. As core members of ritual rock band The Skull Defekts, they have toured the world and released a hot line of records. On their debut as Saturn and the Sun, their common interest in harsh electronic music and deep drones is in the center of attention. Nordwall has run the iDEAL Recordings label since 1998 and has collaborated with people like Mika Vainio, Mats Gustafsson, and Mark Wastell (as Oceans of Silver & Blood). Rylander is crime scene photographer, conceptual artist, and former drummer of dangerous garage rock group Union Carbide Productions. Cover illustration by Savage Pencil. Edition of 100.
