![Sonny & the Sunsets - Antenna to the Afterworld - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/e4a63a56-4750-4f98-b05a-1445bb580ae6.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Sonny & the Sunsets' Antenna to the Afterworld is a fast-moving record of New Wave synths and Post Punk beats. The murder of a close friend of the band led Smith to think a lot about death and life after death. Shortly after, a visit to a psychic/medium brought Smith into contact with another friend who had died. This encounter with the afterworld inspired many of the lyrics on the Sonny & the Sunsets' record. And what a strangely entertaining odyssey it turned out to be.
