This nearly made it on to the year end best of lists just for the opening (and title) track alone. It is phenomenally good, 16 minutes of pure joy. The more I listen to it the more I want it never to stop and the more I keep asking myself…how can there possibly be only 3 of them in the band?! All 3 tracks are repetitive in nature but, with slight subtle changes to the riffs and drum fills, but Blown Out give the perfect lesson of how repetition doesn’t have to be boring. There is a real other-worldly feel to the record, almost like it was composed to explore the universe to, it really is that good. It is powerful and relentless without being overbearing and bombastic. A classic album release!
40 minutes, split over 3 tracks, of mind-bending and bowel-loosening psych jamming. A psychedelic, lysergic romp thru’ the stars with a band who know exactly how to encapsulate the vastness of the cosmos into one superb freakout of a recording. It doesn’t get much heavier and spacier than this Blown Out have released 2 albums this year and both were knockout and it was difficult to choose between this and ‘Planetary Engineering’
