Night Sun

Night Sun were a German hard rock/heavy metal band consisting of Bruno Schaab (vocals, bass), Walter Kirchgessner (guitar), Knut Rossler (organ, saxophone) and Ulrich Staudt (drums). Their one and only LP, Mournin’, was released in 1972 on Polydor’s Zebra label. Kirchgessner’s compositions and guitar style were reminiscent of Deep Purple’s Ritchie Blackmore, while Schaab’s vocals recalled the screams of Robert Plant from Led Zeppelin. The group played an early form of metal and hard rock, characterized by a “heavy progressive” instrumentation of lead guitar, organ, bass and drums. The album was produced by Konrad Plank (whose production credits include Kraftwerk’s early output and Ash Ra Tempel) at the Windrose Studio in Hamburg. With their sudden shifts in rhythmic structures, guitar‑with‑organ riffing style and the use of studio effects — particularly phasing — Night Sun avoided falling into the ordinary boogie and rock’n’roll trap. Their sound incorporated many elements that would appeal to fans of Thrash, Stoner, Doom, Power and Prog Metal, as well as those interested in the genre’s 1970s roots.
