Red House Painters - Sun Kil Moon

Sun Kil Moon

In 2003, Kozelek and Koutsos, along with Geoff Stanfield and Tim Mooney, reformed as Sun Kil Moon, releasing the acclaimed album Ghosts of the Great Highway on Jetset Records. In a 2005 interview with The Onion's AV Club, Kozelek confirmed that he considered Sun Kil Moon essentially a continuation of Red House Painters, but that he changed the band name to grab the interest of critics who had got bored with, or stopped paying attention to, his previous band. The move was successful, as Ghosts of the Great Highway would be his best-selling album yet.

Famous quotes containing the words sun and/or moon:

    This night has been so strange that it seemed
    As if the hair stood up on my head.
    From going-down of the sun I have dreamed
    That women laughing, or timid or wild,
    In rustle of lace or silken stuff,
    Climbed up my creaking stair.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The moon will run all consciences to cover....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
