For a decade now, BAD SUNS have thrived in the sweet spot between indie
rock polish and modern alt-pop energy, crafting a sound that feels both
urgent and timeless
Accelerator, their ffth studio album, doesn't just refne that identity--it pushes it into
new territory. Stra tocasters shimmer through overdriven Vox amps, synths surge like
late-night city lights, and the rhythm section pulses with a restless, undeniable energy.
It's a record that doesn't just move; it commands attention.
The band's evolution has been constant. Since their early days cutting their teeth on
tours with Halsey and The 1975, Bad Suns have spent the past two years stretching
their reach across genre lines, proving their versatility at major festivals and iconic
venues. Whether electrifying Red Rocks alongside All Time Low, opening for Angels &
Airwaves, or winning over Finneas' pop-leaning crowd on their 2025 U.S. run, they've
made a case for them selves as a band without borders.
Helmed once again by longtime collaborator Eric Palmquist (MUTEMATH, Thrice) at
Palm quist Studios, Accelerator feels like the band's most conceptually realized work
to date. Its 12 tracks unfold with cinematic ambition, balancing airtight hooks with an
emotional resonance that shifts depending on how you approach them. It's an album
that doesn't just sit in the background--it begs to be experienced
