Shunkan shares new track ‘Our Names’

New Zealand-based Marina Sakimoto has returned in the guise of a five-piece on Shunkan’s new release, ‘Our Names’. With the backing of a full band, Sakimoto carves new space out of the grunge. Dry wit dominates, and Shunkan has an increasing knack for lines like “I can’t stop falling up the stairs, thank god there’s no-one to care, see what you’ve done to me now, bruising my way through the house.” Weirdly touching, and delivered on an almighty slab of sherbet-grunge, it marks an amping-up of the entire project.
