Thanks! I used a cheesy Squire on the clean stuff with a Slow Gear effect (All my guitars run through a Boss ME-80). The Chorus lead & almost all my high gain stuff is on an Ibanez RG.

"They Call Him Sunlight, They Call Him the Eagle"

Säure Adler was founded back in 2012 in the psychedelic city of Poznań, Poland, by A.J. Kaufmann (voice, acoustic guitar, songwriter) and Kacper Wojaczek (keyboards). The duet played psychedelic folk with poetic lyrics, releasing material independently on bandcamp, performing gigs wherever possible. In 2015 Kacper Wojaczek left, being replaced by Radu Rusanu (keyboards, electric guitar, bass guitar). The band switched directions into a more full-on krautrock / psychedelic rock sound continuing releasing new materials on bandcamp. In 2016 Radu Rusanu was replaced by Luna Lenina (bass guitar, drum machines), and the band re-located to London. The new line-up recorded the "Street Dada Brutalismus" album, which is still available on the band's bandcamp site. In 2018 Säure Adler joined the German netlabel Aumega Project, Germany's leading label for krautrock and psychedelic music and atmospheres, releasing among others the "Pilzmusik" album in early 2019. Also in 2019 A.J. tried to get the band back to their roots with various sessions in limited line-ups (duets), and the sessions brought the "acid eagle" back to their hometown of Poznań with new, highly psychoactive sounds. The band is still active, releasing material on bandcamp, and now, thanks to Ramble Records, their debut album titled simply "Säure Adler" appears on vinyl. The eagle logo design is by long-time friend of the band, Mr. Justin Jackley. Currently Mr. Kaufmann and Mrs. Wunderlicht are in the process of organizing new sessions and gigs for their original Kosmische Punkmusik sound visions.

Lyrics:

I know it’s piercing you
I know it stings
There’s just no easy way

Cause it’s hard
When bright colors are all you’ve seen
And life takes them away

I know you’re struggling
I know your pain
It’s not an easy thing

Cause it’s hard
When bright colors are all you’ve seen
And the vision starts to fade
And it’s hard when all that you have given
Is given all away

So what more have you got
When your vision is shot
Can there be new horizons when skies turn dark?

I know it’s piercing you
I know it stings
There’s just no better way

Cause it’s hard
When bright colors are all you’ve seen
And your vision starts to fade
And it’s hard to be forgiving
When you can’t face another day
And it’s hard to be accepting
Of a change you never made
Cause it’s hard when all bright colors
Slowly fade away
Slowly fade away
Slowly fade away
Slowly fade away

I am Not a traditional guitar player. I've never learned another player's work, preferring any repetition or homage to be completely subconscious at most. The same can be said with my keyboard work.

Due to the complexity of many arrangements, I use a LOT of Stereo Imaging. Therefore, I recommend listening in stereo, as things may sound a bit muddy.
