Out Now in Australia & New Zealand

Check back on this page for details about a Limited Edition Vinyl.


"Adelaide's Leader Cheetah hit the ground running with their debut album, The Sunspot Letters. An enchanting mix of surf guitars and epic song craft; it's one of the most impressive and promising debuts we’ve heard in a while. Leader Cheetah churn out classic pop jams with twanging bass and awesome guitar licks."
Feature Album, Triple J

"Like many great albums, The Sunspot Letters (Spunk!) seems to operate in a space and time of its own, neither in nor out of the mainstream but built to last well beyond the usual allotted time for this year's big things ... One of the strongest Australian debut albums since Augie March's Sunset Studies." (read more)
Noel Mengel, Brisbane Courier Mail

"A gorgeously layered folk rock experiment sitting half way between Neil Young and Interpol; thick and ambitious arrangement featuring a cascade of voices in the chorus and a heavy twang on the lead guitar, creating this intoxicating, moody but deeply melodic song that is entirely without peer in this week of singles. Singer Dan Crannitch has a voice full of dark poetry, and while the re-emergent seventies folk sound is fast becoming a trend, they have taken male harmonies in an amazing new direction."
Beat Magazine, Single Of The Week 'Bloodlines'

"...the love children of Neil Young and one or two of the Flying Burrito Brothers. That is to say they're completely exciting and the only Australian band we've heard to nail Americana..."
Alicia Brodersen, NME.com
