has abstract	Sun war eine 1990 gegründete deutsche Rockband aus Mönchengladbach.Die Musikgruppe hatte ihren kommerziellen Höhepunkt Anfang bis Mitte der 1990er Jahre. Bekannt wurde Sun vor allem durch die beiden Alben XXXX und Nitro, durch die zahlreichen Beiträge auf Samplern wie Crossing all over und durch den Einsatz von im Rock unüblichen Instrumenten wie etwa eine Flöte auf XXXX. Gegründet wurde die Band von Sänger Jörg Schröder, Gitarrist Ralf Aussem und Schlagzeuger Bogdan Skowronek. Aussem war außerdem Gründungsmitglied der Twelve Drummers Drumming (1983). Nach dem Ende der Band war er Mitbegründer der Dead Guitars (2002) und The Wide (2018). Die Band veröffentlichte im Laufe der Jahre nach mehrfachen Umbesetzungen insgesamt sieben Tonträger. Das letzte Werk Sun steht dabei nicht in der kraftvollen und gitarrenorientierten Tradition der vorangegangenen Alben, sondern schwenkt über in eine eher ruhige keyboard-lastige Popmusik.

Two years after founding their band they got their Majordeal on the label Gun Records. The band became good known by their albums Murdernature, XXXX and Nitro as also by co-projects for sequels of the serial rock sampler Crossing All Over. Further, the band used instruments atypical of rock, like English flutes. In the year 2001 the band split up after different exchanges of bandmembers and severe illness of their singer. Their founder and musicwriter Ralf Aussem plays currently in the Scottish/German band Dead Guitars (en)
