We all have our own answer regarding the question what it takes for a band to be truly special.

The songs? The excess? The looks? All
wrong. What makes music special is the life which is pumped into it.
The sorcery. The magic. Enter Sons Of Morpheus: Three Swiss musicians,
united in wish and goal. „We are a unit following the same
thoughts and the same aims“, vocalist Manuel Bissig explains. No
words are needed to express what these are. You hear it. Feel it. With
their self-titled debut, they evoke a sonic trance between Stoner, Blues,
Rock and wavering psychedelia, between the golden aura of yesterday
and the expectant hiss of tomorrow. What unites Sons Of Morpheus
with the heroes of the sixties and seventies, with all these
iconic forefathers of our contemporary riff, is absolute freedom. That’s
why „Sons Of Morpheus“ shows a sense of jamming, of improvising
and of courageous edges despite all that groove and Stoner dust. Only
all too clear that playing live lies at the very core of their art. „We are
a live band, thus we record live“, Bissig states as if this was no big
deal at all. Recording with titan Jim Waters (Sonic Youth, Jon Spencer
Blues Explosion), consequently, was not only a logical step but also the
best decision this band could ever make. This record rumbles, it roars,
it creaks as if the band was thrashing your living room. „When redording
live, this single moment gives birth to something that is feeding
on the emotions present in this room. In this moment, only music matters.“
And precisely this music is of such a dreamlike power that evokes
envy even in the eponymous God of Sleep.
