Philly Melodic Hardcore Band Sunstroke Return with Juicy New Single "I Wanna Be Ignored" (New Morality 'zine)

Sunstroke is a Melodic Hardcore band from Philly consisting of frontman Sean Farlow, lead guitarist Ian Strang, and drummer Brandon F. Wallace, as well as three additional, rather mysterious members, simply known as bassist Mikey, and second/third guitarists Justin & John K. Gillin has spent time playing with [This Is Not for You.], Spoiled Brat, and Waller; while Wallace was once the touring drummer for American Nightmare and has previously played with Damage, I HATE YOU. Knives Out, and Memorial Day, as well as countless other bands. Farlow, whose previous credits are unknown, tells us both Justin & John K. are, also, part of newly-minted New Jersey-based Punk/Hardcore band THOUGHT CONTROL. It appears as though Sean Farlow is a barber on staff at Pennsport Barbershop located in South Philly. Sunstroke have been active since about 2018, when they released their debut EP, Second Floor / Seven on multi-colored vinyl through a partnership with Coin Toss Records & New Morality 'zine. Sunstroke have since released the Bloom at Night EP and "Fall Risk" single both on New Morality 'zine throughout 2019 in physical and digital formats.


It appears as though Sunstroke & New Mortality 'zine are gearing up to release something else together, as Sunstroke (@sunstroke_rs) has been teasing, "New things coming around the corner in a few weeks!!" on Instagram. One of those aforementioned "new things" being a digital single on New Mortality, "I Wanna Be Ignored," debuted at BrooklynVegan last week. It has now been made widely available to the rest of the Punk/Hardcore-loving masses across The Internet. Sunstroke recently told BrooklynVegan: "'I Wanna Be Ignored" is about having a desire to have the alone time needed to reflect and understand circumstance. To have an outlook of progression. It's about making lemonade out of world full of lemons." Limited physical lathe-cut [vinyl] of the single will be available in October with a bunch of other awesome stuff. KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED." Sunstroke are often billed as being a group who harness a sound reminiscent of Revolution Summer-era Dischord Records bands, such as Dag Nasty, Embrace, Gray Matter, Rain, and Rites of Spring and "I Wanna Be Ignored" is no different. Sunstroke's "I Wanna Be Ignored" is now available on streaming services. Nick Acosta at New Morality 'zine tells us additional details concerning the aforementioned limited edition lathe-cut vinyl singles will be revealed soon and are expected to be released towards the end of October.
