POO/V/X: Psychedelic Albums 1995-Present

I liked a lot also stuff from Electric Wizard, Circle, Acid Mothers Temple, Ghost, Nurse With Wound more psychedelicized efforts and on and on...

i think it's the first Mainliner album, recently re-released by Riotseason. Nanjo on bass, Kawabata on guitar, it is just great.

Terry - Rojvi LP
Tower Recordings - Folk Scene
Jim Collins Presents Music from the High Mass
and yes,
Comets on Fire - Blue Cathedral

Seriously, though, by your definition, Rush, Pink Floyd and Van der Graff Generator are 100x more 'psychedelic' than Mercury Rev fer chrissakes (PS I like Mercury Rev). I mean, what makes it psychedelic? If you can smoke dope to it?

and good call with Kemialliset Ystavat

Jackie-O Motherfucker--Liberation
Yume Bitsu--Golden Vessyl of Sound
Yo La Tengo--The Sounds of the Sounds of Science
Kelley Stoltz--The Past Was Faster
The Warlocks--Rise and Fall
Wimdy & Carl--Drawing of Sound
Sigur Ros--Agaetis Byrjun
M83--Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts

I have yet to hear Tower Recordings. Need to check this out.

Circle, start with Pori or Prospekt maybe, or Sunrise, if you like metal.

I'd also maybe say that The Return of the Frog Queen by Jeremey Enigk is a great great overlooked psych record (folk-psych anyway, not sludge-psych).

I love Urdog. They're friends from home. I still haven't heard the new CD, but the CDr they put out two(?) years ago is pretty killer. Farfisa/Drums/Guitar & effects. I smoke a lot of weed, though.

A lot of my choices have been mentioned, but here's a list anyway:
comets on fire - blue cathdral
charalambides - joy shapes, internal/eternal
fursaxa - mandrake
tower recordings - folk scene (listened to this on the train this morning) & furniture music for evening shuttles
espers CD, which may or may have not a title besides "espers"...
son of earth/double leopards split LP
flacid mothra's pimple - la novia

more once i get home and can gaze at teh list.

pelt - pearls from the river
jackie-o-motherfucker - change (mostly for the song "Everyday")
spires that in the sunset rise - s/t
bardo pond - dilate, lapsed
thuja - the deer lay down their bones
hala strana - s/t

im trying to slsk urdog, tower recordings, liquorball, circle (prospekt), up-tight, and lsd march. zero results in like 12 hours. LAME!

Ghost, Boredoms, Bardo Pond, Circle etc all seconded. Not heard the Liquorball album, but had a nice luminous vinyl 7" of theirs a long time ago (the song that goes on about breaking folks faces), and that was indeed some strong medicine, so yeah, Fucks The Sky should be a good one to hunt down. Does anyone know much about the band? Did they go on to do anything else or what?

ive heard only a few bevis frond things - i only can remember inner marshland, which i liked. is he worth checking out?

The Nephews - This World CD (Sympathy for the Record Industry, 1995)

It is an album written and performed by Tim and his band!

I wish more people had heard this album...

I've only heard one of them, but it's at least as good as walk to the fire. The new compilation is one of the next things I'm going to buy, definitely.

Gygax, my mom was in town, and I missed the Liquorball reunion. Please tell us all how it was?

I have the first two Monoshock singles if you want to borrow whichever one you don't have!

Liquorball reunion, 9/18, Hemlock Tavern, SF, 5pm, free:
The show got off to a late start around 6:30pm as they were running really late due to Marlon running into some traffic or something. Grady wore a lab coat and an ape mask and played a Japanese jaguar copy. Marlon played his Rick bass. I was pretty excited because they were one of my favorite SF bands when i was living in LA, and I did get to see them when they toured the USA as VON LMO's backing band but i never really got to see them as a stand alone band outside of a couple ROWDY parties in West Oakland and one show at the old Port Lite. Marlon set up a bigscreen TV with this really great laserdisc of early 80s digital fantasy worlds. The rhythm section was really locked into this pounding Sister Ray/Mother Sky epic motorik. After a slow build, Grady scorched wave after wave of acid-riffs/slide of garage psych filtered through a black flag (circa "slip it in") sensibility over the top. Two or three songs in over an hour.

He would know; he IS Furisubi! oh oh ho..

The new Black Forest/Black Sea on LVD is very good--"Radiant Symmetry." A collection of live improvisations from their last(?) European tour.

No one mentioned that Circulatory System album. And "uh-oh" by Tipsy is a true psych classic, though they are usually tagged as lounge.

Vibracathedral Orchestra - The Queen of Guess
VCO/Sunroof - 2003 Tour cd-r (i forget the title)
Youngsbower- Relayer
Sunroof! - USSA
Sunroof! - Cloudz
Pelt - Ayahuasca (sp?)

Wings Over America! But yeah, what a beautiful set of toonz. Especially grebt is Sunroof "Snow Covered Hills." I love it to death, I do. That Pelt is good too. I haven't heard any of the other Sunroof! stuff, though I have the feeling I'd dig it.

Also new 3LP comp on Time Lag/Eclipse with MV & EE w/ Chris Corsano, Jack Rose, Fursaxa, Joshua w/ Kemialliset Ystavat, Dredd Foole, and Six Organs of Admittance. The Dredd Foole side is a bit of a let down. One long howled sound poetry jam and then one relatively short acoustic guitar/voice song in his primitivist vein, which is actually pretty nice. Also not altogether thrilled with the MV/EE/EE side, I hate to say. The rest is pretty great, though. The lengthier of the two tracks on Jack Rose's side sounds like a bowed steel string acoustic guitar, and is nice and heady. Fursaxa's single long piece is gorgeous, though lags a bit towards the end when the guitar and keyboard drop out and it's just layered flutes and vocals.
