lyrics
YOU TALK ABOUT HOW LOW YOU GO
ABOUT THE VINTAGE AMPS YOUVE SOLD
OR ABOUT THE BONG YOU SMOKED TODAY
SABBATH WORSHIP JUST GO AWAY
ALL YOUR MONEY GOES RIGHT TO WEED
OR TOWARDS YOUR VINTAGE JACKET TWEED
BUT YOUR BELLBOTTOMS WILL HOLD YOU BACK
PREPARE YOURSELF FOR MERLINS DOOM ATTACK
I SEE WHY
STONER DOOM MUST DIE
I SEE WHY
YOU RECORD ON REEL TO REEL
AND YOU AWAIT A RECORD DEAL
BUT AS THE YEARS GO BY
YOU WONDER WHY YOU EVEN TRY
THE OCCULT IS AN EASY SELL
WELL PORNO PICTURES SURE DO AS WELL
YOU SLAP A SKULL ON EVERYTHING
TO SHOW US ALL YOUR EVIL BLING
I SEE WHY
STONER DOOM MUST DIE
I SEE WHY

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art?
But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst

It's only four tracks, yes, but it's four tracks of great cosmic psychedelia.

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points.
This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+... rick-taylor
