“If the rings of Saturn could sing, this is the sound they would make.” ~

 

Zero Tolerance magazine

I could think that it I might be able to post this  on last weekend , but was a holiday here which at seem was an important day of recognition to… I don´t know what. On my country are changing the important days according to tourism so…I was on a break along with my family to then return it to my normal life surely full of distractions   and time constraints to write , but full of sounds, too.

So, I have been listening to a ton of psychedelics stuff and again I’m fucking obsessed with these four psychedelic fellas from Glasgow with a penchant for trippy, long-form grooves that summon space spirit who we know as Cosmic Dead

They are by far one of my favorites band out on last year and continue to be out a seemingly endless supply of brain melting psych and drone acts, like their truck load of last year , when they released self-titled cassette, an eighty minutes plus mystery ride, deep into rich pulsating waves of drone, soaked guitar fireworks and vocal glimpses.

Well,  they  have  returned this year  with others  slow-burning  brain candles,   subtle and  unpredictables, full of  tiny melodies which begin to swell up and multiply, creating something deep and intense.

You can soak in this for a while, only  check out their work below and can get some 

 I would like  to remind everyone –  while it is impossible and pointless  fight to illegal downloads, although my intentions could be  good   – that you could give few dollars/ pounds/ pennies  to the artists and labels you like.

If you love Cosmic Dead please head to their bandcamp to do it, there ,  with just some pounds r you can get home almost all Cosmic Dead  albums  and  give ’em some coins so they can keep making great music! 

Of course for the lovers of physical products,  this  is the place you need to visit.
