Suicide and Sunshine is the fourth studio album by Australian punk rock band, Trophy Eyes, released on 23 June 2023 by Hopeless Records.[1][2] It was produced by Shane Edwards and Fletcher Matthews at Studio 28 in Bangkok, Thailand.[3]
Background and promotion
[edit]Suicide and Sunshine began as a sort of swansong of sorts for the band of ten years, having decided to break up amid the COVID-19 pandemic.[4] According to John Floreani, "A lot of what we were doing [on this album] is just expressing ourselves freely".[5]
The title of the album, Suicide and Sunshine', comes from 'Sean', a track detailing the heartbreak Floreani experienced after his friend ended his life. According to Floreani, it was sunny when he heard of Sean's passing.[6]
The first single from Suicide and Sunshine, "Blue Eyed Boy", was released on 3 March 2023 along with an accompanying music video.[7]
