Sun Kil Moon

Sun Kil Moon is the name under which Red House Painters singer/songwriter/leader Mark Kozelek released his 2003 album Ghosts of the Great Highway. The album is marked instrumentally by both quiet acoustic numbers (including the addition of Portuguese guitar to the instrumentation) and louder Crazy Horse-esque distorted guitar. Vocally this album seems more extroverted than his previous work, the lyrics balancing epic tragedy ("Salvador Sanchez," "Pancho Villa" and "Duk Koo Kim," all titled for boxers -- "Pancho Villa" refers not to the revolutionary, but to a Philippine boxer who fought under that name), personal emotional states, and an occasionally surprising lightness of spirit ("Lily and Parrots," "Glenn Tipton"). "Glenn Tipton," the album's opener, is named for the guitarist of metal band Judas Priest, and makes comparative reference to the guitarist who replaced Tipton, K.K. Downing. Mark Kozelek has also appeared in several films, including Cameron Crowe's Almost Famous and Vanilla Sky.
