Vanderwolf has recently released a new song titled As The Sun. This track is a beautifully organic and timeless blend of blues and folk influences. The introduction, in particular, features incredibly dynamic slide guitar playing, reminiscent of old-school Delta blues. The long, sustained notes might bring to mind legendary guitarists such as Blind Willie Johnson, among others.
The sparse percussion complements the raw yet rich energy of the composition, creating a striking contrast between the minimalism of the instrumental arrangement and the grandeur of the choir.
The layered vocals are spot-on, with beautiful harmonies and group singing that lend a timeless, almost spiritual quality to the piece—evoking the essence of early blues and gospel chants.
The song feels incredibly natural and immersive, especially towards the end, where ambient soundscapes, like the sound of rain, add depth and atmosphere. This final touch enhances the song’s visual intensity, making it feel almost like the soundtrack to an old film.
