It's April 3rd. Welcome to music news today, powered by AI, and tuned in to what's next. Sundown Shine is the new Doom Supergroup, blending half of typo negative with half of Crowbar's classic lineup. Guitarist and vocalist Kenny Hickey and drummer Johnny Kelly from New York team, up with guitarist and vocalist Kirk Winston and bassist Todd Strange. From New Orleans, their debut album, Birth to Death, to his drop-down corpse pain records. This project started as EY-E-A-M and got funded by a dedicated fan. The sound hits that heavy gloomy 1990s riff territory, but opens up brighter than you'd expect from these vets. It mixes Sabbath-style doom with room to breathe, pulling from Led Zeppelin's full range of light and dark vibes. Fans are buzzing because it's reflective. Looking back at self-destructive days and mortality stuff, these guys couldn't tackle when younger. Coming from scenes hit hard by loss in Brooklyn and New Orleans, the music carries that weight of real experience and survival.

Kenny talks about evolving since typo's wild early days, now aiming to craft the best word possible every time. Share taste linked them back to touring with Pantera and loving sludge metal, making riffs flow easy between the camps. Birth to Death delivers that comprehensive body of work they're chasing, optimistic despite the darkness. With Kenny's dreary silver tomb album on the way to, these legends keep building their heavy legacy.
