Sungrazer - Behind

Sungrazer is a Dutch heavy rock three piece formed in the beginning of 2009. Their music ranges from psychedelic jams to stoner rock.

Listened to this on repeat so many times. So sad to learn that Rutger passed; my first impression of this song was the incredible tone and harmonies in his guitar playing. I wish I could tell him in person how inspirational it is. Edit: Responding to some people who have a negative opinion of the song. It's not perfect by any means. Clearly it's not commercially viable in many ways; but that's the point. They didn't want it to be perfect. I believe they were attempting to evoke a certain sense of wonder, exploration, the contrast between hope and dispair, and a certain un-earthlyness. All of the flaws in the song seem to achieve all of that.

I think they are pretty good, when I noticed them I really liked the genuiness of the music, unfortunately it endes tragically, otherwise I imagine they would have evolved into something very great. I wish I had had the opportunity to see them play live, that would have been great!

The song is perfect, don't apologize to these people. Let them be unhappy.

Rest in peace Rutger :(

Ok, nobody with music this good should have to only have 1665 views.

[@BubbaZanetti6666]

Everyone going on about how high they are... think of me , I am completely out :( What a song though, I can only imagine how good it would be, should ones senses be heightened.

In the vast majority of stoner rock songs, yes! We love the muff.

Thank you, Rutger.

Is that Big Muff distortion I hear?

Inspiring, original rock ✨️🤘🏼 A musical journey.

One of underestimated bands ever

[@garylevan45]

did you ever find mp3s? I've been googling for two days and can't find them anywhere

[@SrtaGarro]

Por favor estén pronto en Apple Music 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@fastronaut909]

Anyone have an idea of the delays/reverbs used when the guitar comes in at 0:53

[@robertgolfetto]

Hey, sorry for the late answer. Anyway, Rutger used a combination of either space echo and dd7 in mod mode Can't tell how he did it

[@fastronaut909]

@@robertgolfetto yeeeesss! I love the Space Echo; that thing speaks to my soul. I’ve surprisingly never owned a DD-7. Just watched a quick demo and love that mod setting. Thank you so much!

[@fastronaut909]

@@robertgolfetto I also love that fuzz in the middle of the song. Any idea what that could be? Know any of the other pedals he used?

[@robertgolfetto]

@@fastronaut909 i know exactly what he used: 1)Korg pitch black tuner 2)Roland space echo re 201 3)boss dd7 4)lehle switch (i don't recall the model) 5)boss tr2 6)morley wah 7)2 ehx big muff NYC to pilot two fender blues deluxe amps with slightly different settings 8)boss BF3 I guess that's all was a really simple pedalboard and no fancy stuff... He upgraded the two big muffs with two turbulent ash fuzz by black effect pedals (the only boutique pedals he had, based on rams head's big muff)

they just disbanded yesterday :(

[@BustaSkrugz]

I feel so left out discovering this just now

[@OmegaRedFan]

Sad but common. Many bands end up disbanded

[@Uniqeuno]

To be honest its my top 1 band of all time

[@SkiingAintCrime]

man does anyone know what amps rutger used?? this is the best guitar tone ever, rip...

[@molego3693]

Fender Blues Deluxe™ Reissue 40 watt, wonderful amp. Great guitarist, great bassist and drummer, they were an exceptional band. “The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.”

Monotonous and lyrically uninspiring. A band you go to because you couldn't afford to see Tool. Not bad music....just not all that spectacular....unless you are high...then it is phenomenal. Maybe that was the point...

[@siriplaydopethrone8973]

Nah it's because i didn't WANT to see Tool. They suck ass.

[@paperoverflow]

Maybe because you are like in stinkfist, a tad bit "desensitized to everything" and need an "elbow deep inside the borderline" to feel at all. "People who couldn't afford to see Tool", what a weak logic, you are the one missing out.

[@slappy2836]

Wow im sure youre a fun hang. Im sure your band is incendiary.
