After 15 years progressive instrumental stalwarts Sons of Alpha Centauri, driving riff rock masters Treasure Cat and deluxe viny arthouse H42 Records present the re-release of legendary collaboration Last Day of Summer on 12” vinyl celebrating the 15 years anniversary of the release!


Last Day of Summer is the creation and merging of two pioneering instrumental rock bands from both sides of the Atlantic. The album is both a split and collaboration being the first of its kind when released.


Sons of Alpha Centauri blend psychedelic and ambient elements to create a hypnotic harmonic pulse to form the body of a vast electronic riff rock instrumental soundscapes. Treasure Cat morphed from the ashes of instrumental legends Karma to Burn in 2003 to form an undeniable blend of driving rock hooks and sonic riffs to create a supercharged rock experience.


In 2007 both bands collaborated to write and record a trilogy of new tracks together to form for the first time ever a solely instrumental hard rock super group. Together with four songs provided by each act the result is a pure instrumental head trip that never lets up and refuses to let go!


H42 Records present Last Day of Summer on double 2x12” with number of vinyl colour variations, featuring new artwork from Alex von Welding and for the first time the original demos from the Alpha Cat and Sons of Alpha Centauri sessions this exclusive release is limited copies


The release contains a collection of live photography spanning the collaboration and is the missing chapter from Karma to Burn guitarist Will Mecum - comprising the remainder of the Treasure Cat discography and marked the start of his long running collaboration with Sons of Alpha Centauri.


Last Day of Summer available exclusively through H42 Records.
