Melody’s Echo Chamber aka French singer/guitarist Melody Prochet, is one of the greatest psychedelic musicians of our time. Across her remarkably consistent discography it’s hard to pick favorites. However I feel like since her 2012 debut the music has generally gotten better and better. This album […]
The debut album by this Japanese group is an all time psychedelic classic that demonstrates considerable range and a deep understanding of the zeitgeist. The entire discography of Omoide Hatoba is absolutely top tier psychedelic freak rock of the highest order, and so you might as […]
I’m so glad there’s fantastic audio and video record of this singular, career spanning theater set by these psychedelic legends. This concert took place at my favorite venue in the United States, Red Rock Amphitheater. Concerts (outdoors) had only recently returned as the covid-19 pandemic wound […]
This highly anticipated official debut by Tapers Choice more than delivers on the band’s premise as a critical torchbearer for the jam band sound. In fact this group might redeem the premise of “jam band” for many listeners. They truly deliver as the highest tier of […]
The three records Giant Psychedelia, Mega Psychedelia and Giga Psychedelia are official live albums documenting three different performances by blog favorite psych/noise legends Acid Mothers Temple, joined on these journeys by guitarist Seiichi Yamamoto. Seiichi is widely known as the lead guitarist/multi-instrumentalist for intentionally renowned groups […]
This is a 2020 Black Editions reissue of a P.S.F records all-timer called Musica Transonic. This group/jam is a super session consisting of three of our favorite musicans: Makoto Kawabata of Acid Mothers Temple on guitar, Asahito Nanjo of High Rise on bass, and Yoshida Tatsuya […]
I’ve loved this Austin, TX band for years and I think this twelfth album (wow!) is their finest work yet. There’s still that classic White Denim sound of alt-Southern-rock meets neo-soul and psych, but it’s elevated sonically with wonderfully composed synths and strings. It’s also a […]
The long awaited new album from The Myrrors, their first since 2018. “Land Back” is heavily improvised, perfectly balanced and delivers completely. It’s droney, rhythmic, very interesting and continuously engaging. Definitely a record you’ll want to play loudly through speakers and immerse yourself into. Though ultimately […]
San Francisco psych legends Quicksilver Messenger Service are one of the greatest and most underappreciated OG psych bands. This second album remains the most influential and essential. It’s an excellent record of the band’s original quartet lineup and early repertoire. Beyond it, the band itself deserved […]
Buffalo Daughter is a massively underappreciated Japanese rock/psych band and this 2021 comeback album (their first in 7 years) is especially overlooked. It’s a bit darker and more electronic than their previous records and that keeps with the future forward theme- it’s a darker, more electronic […]
