Time marches on, and so do The Datsuns. Despite an ever-changing musical landscape, the band continues to draw on a lifetime of experience and an enduring mastery of rock ’n’ roll, delivering new music with the energy, power and joyful ferocity that have always defined them.
In September, the band announced their eighth studio album, Moonstruck Man, alongside the release of its title track – a gloriously rambling slice of 1970s-inspired rock packed with wailing wah, scorching guitars, high-register vocals and flashes of prog and glam-rock eccentricity. The second taste of Moonstruck Man arrives today with ‘Run From The Sun’, a heavy, hypnotic and spacious slice of desert rock. Driven by a bluesy bassline and killer fuzz riffs, the track combines the chunky force of ’70s hard rock with the dreamy, expansive atmosphere of psychedelia.
