Svart

40 Watt Sun is a project led by singer, guitarist, and songwriter Patrick Walker. Known for his previous band, Warning, Walker brings his signature down-tempo rhythms and strong melodies to 40 Watt Sun's music. With introspective lyrical themes and poignant vocals, their debut album "The Inside Room" showcases similarities to Warning's unique style of Doom Metal. However, their second album "Wider Than the Sky" takes a departure from Doom Metal grounds.

Svart is a Finnish label that was established in Turku in 2009 by two individuals, specializing in re-releasing underground music on vinyl. They have gained recognition for their label series, *Jazz Liisa* and *Pop-Liisa*, which showcase the best of underground music. With a focus on quality and authenticity, Svart has become a trusted name in the industry.

Back In Stock

40 Watt Sun returns with Perfect Light; the third studio album created by Patrick Walker under the moniker. The expertly crafted, personal songs range from sparse, unaccompanied voice and guitar, through gently layered instrumentation featuring piano and delicate brush work, to moments more reflective of the warm, subtle overdrive of the band’s previous album, Wider than the Sky (2016). Like Patrick’s best work, the songs quietly build with emotion, and ache with a darkness and melancholy beauty. Perfect Light is the first 40 Watt Sun album created without a full, formal band structure. Patrick enlisted an array of accomplished musicians to fulfil his vision for the album, including, among others, Andrew Prestidge and Roland Scriver (The Osiris Club), Ajit Gill (Vertaal), Lorraine Rath (Amber Asylum/Worm Ouroboros), and pianist/composer Chris Redman. Alongside Patrick’s poignant and emotive vocals, his poetic lyrics remain central to the allure of the songs, with their composition strong enough to be evocative even when absorbed aside from the music. With no intention to make deliberately dark music, the album contains shards of hope and light to pierce through the pensiveness.
