Reviewed 2004-11-02
Heavy ass stoner psyche rock instrumentals, big fuzz bass, giant drums, and full stack distorto noise Marshall guitar jams that chew through the pots on the wah wahs pedals quick. Epic, with a capital LSD. For fans of Comets on Fire, stoner rock’isms of Nebula, old Fu Manchu. Dig it dood! If only the 60’s were this cool the revolution might actually have occurred instead of steeped away in the combined bongwater of a million Dead shows….

1) full bore stoner psyche rawk! Heavy on the wah wah, breaks down midway and slows then speeds, cool
2) slow noodly stoner rock, pass the bong
3) upbeat triplet jam, like Cream on crystal meth through a fuzzbox, or the best part of Whipping Post
4) starts with air-raid siren and quickly because a battering ram of machine gun firing bashout jam, explosiongs, crashing planes, wow!!!
5) swinging head nodding loud rock, long, degenerates into full on noise leads
6) driving stoner rock, raise your fist
7) great noisiness, rather low fi feel
8) echoey solo guitar noise fest intro lasts ~4 minutes then a slow paced introspective loud minor keyed jam ensues, great, false fade out after 11+ minutes but comes back after about 5 sec of silence faster
