Psychedelic Mixed Bag
Music i have been listening to recently, it might take a while to get through, but the rewards are well worth the time in my opinion. Some of it may be familiar others are more obscure.
CAN - Needs no introduction, just some footage of some repetitious grooves that i hadn't yet heard. (post 1 + 2)
German Oak - Summer of 72, 5-man Düsseldorf instrumental group German Oak entered the Luftschutzbunker (Air Raid Shelter) studio to record their first, eponymous album. The purpose of recording in a bunker was to recreate the feelings experienced by German soldiers during the Allied invasion of 1944. The strange acoustic conditions in the bunker made the music, which was a series of long, spacious guitar jams, sound distant and filled with echo. (post 3 + 4)
Current 93 - are an eclectic British Experimental Music group, working since the early 1980s in folk-based musicalforms. The band was founded in 1982 by David Tibet (né David Michael Bunting, renamed 'Tibet' by Genesis P Orridge sometime prior to forming the group).
Strawberry Alarm Clock - One of my favorite SAC songs, incense and peppermints off the album off the same name.
Comus - Very beautiful psych-folk band, we played this album non stop whilst driving the Big Sur in California on our recent trip. The song is called Song to Comus.
Brainticket - Black Sand, this one just makes me loose my mind. In a good way.
Quicksilver Messenger Service - Another very poppy one, but very cool feel to this band.
Oh and the first image is the band Comus.
Good Luck.
