Sunny War's early career consisted of punk music, which can be felt in with the intense emotion delivered on some of the tracks for her 2023 album Anarchist Gospel. The album begins with a soulful ode to gospel music with a heavy dose instrumentals rooted jazz. As the album weaves along, you hear an internal fight Sunny War details so passionately through her songwriting.
