LISTEN: Sailor June Drops Stunning Goth Guitar Blitzkrieg On “After Image”

Sailor June is the solo musical project of singer–songwriter Juniper Jefferies. The Nashville native’s sound mixes elements of shoegaze, grunge, and alternative rock/pop. June thrives in the duality of light and dark, often creating a soundscape of harsh guitar and up-front bass, paired with lush, dream-pop vocals. Her lyrics are brutally honest and personal, creating intimacy and a place of vulnerability within her music.

Dark and perfectly unbridled, “After Image” is the distinct new single from Sailor June. With a hypotonic vocal flair, June swims in a tonally precise bed of thunderous bass drive and cutting guitar lines. Containing a haunting and buzzing shoegaze presentation wight lightning guitars, this is truly My Bloody Valentine meets Siouxsie and the Banshees for the new decade.

“After Image is a story of revenge. It encapsulates a sort of haunting, one in which I come back as a ghost to torment mortal enemies. In a way, it’s a sort of cathartic fantasy and reflection on how I’ve learned to stand up for myself,” says Jefferies.
