The band celebrate 10 years of not imploding
Yeah, it's been a while... What's going on, you ask? Take a seat and dig in.
Hey cybernauts, it’s been a minute, huh?
We know we’ve been a bit quiet lately, and honestly, life just kind of happened. You know how it goes—things got hectic, and before we knew it, time flew by! But we wanted to pop in and let you know we’re still here, still jamming, and we’ve definitely missed you.
We’ve got some cool stuff in the works and can’t wait to share it with you all soon.
This week, we have the following to share with you:
The band celebrates a decade
Our meme of the week
10 years is a long, long time
So, this past September it was the 10 year anniversary of the release of our very first EP, The Sunflowers EP.
It’s been a whole decade of making noise, freaking people out, and somehow still not getting kicked out of venues. To celebrate this massive achievement, we figured, why not throw a gig in Socorro? Because nothing screams “anniversary” like blasting distorted guitars in a room full of sweaty strangers, right?

So, yeah, it’s been 10 years since we first picked up our instruments and decided to scream about aliens, cowboys, and the impending apocalypse. We've played shows in sketchy “venues”, random festivals, and everything in between. And now we’re inviting you to this very special show, where we’ll take you on a journey through all the chaos we’ve created over the years. Expect a full-blown trip (possibly literal, if someone brings the right substances) through our entire discography. It’ll be like flipping through a photo album – but louder, weirder, and with more chances of tinnitus.
We’re digging deep into the archives, starting with songs from our first EPs, to our debut album, "The Intergalactic Guide to Find the Red Cowboy", and we'll work our way through to the more "mature" (read: slightly less chaotic but still confusing) sounds of "A Strange Feeling of Existential Angst", where, if you listen closely, you’ll hear the subtle undertones of us losing our minds while pretending to have it all together. It’s called art, okay?
You can expect a night packed with relentless, fuzzed-out guitars, drums so loud you’ll feel them in your bones, and lyrics that… well, let’s be honest, we don’t always know what they mean either. But don’t worry – we’ll be watching you, and we expect some nodding along like you’re deep in thought, pretending you totally "get it." It’s part of the experience.
And hey, after ten years of making noise, we’ve learned a few things. Like, we might tune our instruments this time (don’t hold your breath). We’ll definitely be bringing the energy, the chaos, and all the stuff that’s kept us going this long without completely falling apart.
Whether you’ve been with us since the early days, or you’re just here to look cool and brag about how into psychedelic garage rock you are, this is the show for you. We promise a wild ride, lots of sweat, and maybe some borderline spiritual experiences (we’re not responsible for those).
Get your tickets here!
Also, at the show, we’ll have an old t-shirt design that’s been requested for over 9 years! People have been messaging us, asking where to buy it, where to steal it, and we’ve heard you. We’re making a new run of the smoking alien shirt!
So come celebrate with us and see if we can survive another 10 years without totally imploding. Maybe we’ll even try to have some more ridiculous merch to sell, like a Sunflowers-branded stress ball to cope with the noise-induced anxiety we’re about to unleash.
Either way, we’re ready to go all out – and you should be too.

That’s all, folks!
Thanks for reading this far. Here’s a quote we enjoy:
“Forget about being world famous, it's hard enough just getting the automatic doors at the supermarket to acknowledge our existence.”

Have a wonderful week. We love you.
