Comment: this 14-track
issue is a decorous example of the so-called New Weird (America) movement. The
album was released in 2007 which was the heyday of the style. More profoundly,
expressive but ecstatic singing is tightly surrounded by burbly guitar
twanging, spacey drones, and solfeggio choruses. At times folk tunes are to
progress and metabolize into hazy trance rock templates thereby conjuring up
psychedelic flashbacks and dilated self-realization. Certainly it is a wondrous
experience to stop by and listen and be part of it. Indeed, those times were
unforgettable ones because anyone called the shots and believed he/she can provide
something precious to the world. The collective was related to such
labels/platforms as Quixodelic Records and Daydream Generation which in turn
were closely related to such wondrous music platform as it was Indiana-based CLLCT,
of which involving hundreds of DIY projects. I really hope it is possible to
recover it sometime.
