Now I’ll admit to avoiding anything that has psych in its description, but I would argue this has a much deeper stoner groove. This screams early Sabbath in places, and it’s only when the trippy vocals kick in that you get that post rock vibe.
Love the opening track Mothers Of The Son. The serene vocals of Amber Webber mixed with that heavy guitar just hits the spot. Florian Saucer Attack on the other hand has that annoying tinny indie sound that just doesn’t do it for me. Defector has a very early seventies Prog vibe to its proceedings, mainly due to the melotron at the intro. You Can Dream just has that repeating huge guitar with Siouxsie vibes a plenty. Constellations has that big post rock vibe going on and I would say this is my favourite track. Line Them All Up has the biggest psych sound on the album and is very late sixties in feel. Cemetery Breeding is early nineties Pulp. Over And Over has a Saucerful Of Secrets vibe all the way through it. Crucify Me is a beautiful acoustic piece that could have been born in Laurel Canyon. The Pink Floyd vibes are strong with the close out track, Space To Bakersfield. Not a bad album and it’s one that I would call a mood album.
7/10 from The Grooveman.
