The Utica Flower Company - The Utica Flower Company (2007)
/New Weird America, Free
folk, Space rock, Acid rock, Indie folk, Psychedelic folk, Drone folk, Trance
rock, Experimental folk, Folk indie, Psych-folk/
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.

Kaleidonauts – Tigermouse (2008)
/Folk indie, New Weird
America, Indie folk, Psychedelic folk, Americana, Alt-folk/
Comment: The project is a transatlantic collaboration project between
Smally (The Wheelies) and Jon of the Atom (Dead Canaries) who recruited lots of
other musicians to fulfil their aesthetical ambitions and artsy reflections. Tigermouse is their sophomore issue
which was produced at pinnacle of the New Weird America movement at the end of
the 00s. This 13-track issue is amusingly jaunty and energetic filled with
psychedelic keyboard whiffs, sheeny glockenspiel chords and catchy guitar
strumming and exaggerated singing pads or on the other side providing more
majestic insights into their intimate world. However, listen to I`ll Be Your Pavement, and 4000 Mile Dream, and Blood Music, and Oh No, and The Somewhere Song
these are truly great pop songs, full of life and getting you an additional
boost. The album is related to such fabulous free folk and experimental
rock/indie platforms as Quixodelic, Daydream Generation, and deceased CLLCT.

/Psych-folk, Weird folk, Indie folk, Alt-folk, New Weird America, Psychedelic, Spoken word, Avant-folk/
Comment: these 8 pieces by Simon Piler and Brendon Hertz, Scarytoes, Def Mute, Emerson Betchkal, and Lt. Spark are all about folk music, though, the combo used to outreach the average, stereotype-obscured understanding of it. Strumming guitars are blended with chanting, at times even hysterical sort of singing. All of that is present within the open-ended yet somewhat warped atmosphere. Indeed, it symbolically hints at a vast array of possibilities so characteristic to this publication. The group`s guitar works are used to come across close to the aesthetics of John Fahey, Leo Kottke and other representatives of American Primitivism and on the other digging out lots of inspiration from the tradition of 60`s hippie and psych-folk seeds. At times these chants are variegated with spoken word interludes and found sound records. In a nutshell, all these projects related to the umbrella of Quixodelic and Daydream Generation do not disappoint the listener.
