A loose, adventurous collision of progressive rock, jazz and psychedelia, this 1971 lost British prog jazz album, ‘Samurai’, remains a remarkable work and one of the great overlooked British albums of the early seventies. (Cinedelic Records)
A stunning lone album from Québec heavy rockers Ellison (Guerssen reissue).
It was incredibly exciting to work on this very special reissue for Seelie Court. What else is there to say? Top-notch underground heavy rock from 1971. An absolute must!
Ted Riederer’s first Tone Picture transforms a photograph of Walt Whitman into sound, cut as a single continuous spiral groove in an edition of just twelve copies.
Grand Theft’s ultra-rare 1972 Seattle proto-metal private press, recorded in a single session and newly cut from the tapes. If you dig freakout stuff, this is it!
Morgonrock’s ‘Morgondagens minnen’ is a truly wonderful album, filled with warm melodies, dreamy passages and beautifully played psychedelic prog.
An absolute surprise and an exceptionally great debut from this Melbourne, Australia-based band. Anxious, melodic and a sound entirely its own.
Agnes Strange’s lone LP is a tough, bluesy slice of British hard rock that deserved far more attention than it received in 1975.
Newly unearthed material from New York proto-metal outsiders Punch, a band who released one highly collectable 45 in 1970 before disappearing, is finally seeing the light of day thanks to Ancient Grease Records, with liner notes by yours truly.
Temple Solaire’s debut album ‘Past Due’ is a beautifully hazy Zürich garage-psych trip, full of jangle, tape warmth…
Weaveworld’s album is a strong, previously unheard Manchester guitar record from the early ’90s, with clear links to The Chameleons but enough character to stand on its own.
Canberra’s lost heavy prog underground comes roaring out of the ’70s vaults with Samuel D. Rich, out via Magnetic South and Eminent Vinyl.
A sought-after Italian psychprog instrumental LP from 1970, The Underground Set mixes Hammond, fuzz guitar and soundtrack-style grooves with a distinct late-60s Italian underground feel.
Golden Toad’s ‘Unite The Worms’ is Al Brown’s debut solo album, a garage-born mix of electronic rhythms, krautrock elements and psych-rock oddness, released through Tip Top Recordings.
Here is ‘The Hurdy Gurdy Man’, Donovan’s 1968 LP, by the fantastic state51 Conspiracy, remastered from the original!!! mono master tapes at Abbey Road. Truly impressed, … full of life, and you realise just how influential, and how very British, this record was at the time. Essential.
Reuniting in 2025, Parker, David Max, and Nick Kramer return with new music. The 'Smoky Remix' EP revisits 'Make Believe' with softer guitars and more prominent vocals, offering a fresh take while preserving the songs’ core.
A top-drawer self-titled album from Welsh band Universe, whose ultra-rare 1971 LP has long been the stuff of collectors’ dreams. This version is a fantastic reissue by Ancient Grease Records.
On ‘Of Ghosts and Gods’, Sons of Town Hall turn close harmonies, maritime tales and a touch of theatre into a folk record that feels like an old story told anew.
A truly inspiring and beautifully crafted album from a band returning with new material after 40 years.
Jade Stone & Luv’s ‘Mosaics: Pieces Of Stone’ is a very strange and rather fascinating bit of late-70s Nashville psychedelia, long tucked away in collector circles. A grail of “real people’s music”. A must for outsiders. This is Subliminal Sounds version.
A fantastic release by Brooklyn’s DÜÜL SUNS, whose self-titled debut mini-album is out via Declared Goods and offers six self-produced dream-psych songs recorded and mixed in a Brooklyn basement.
First issued in South Africa in 1969 and unavailable for decades, English-Zimbabwean cult folk artist John Phillips’ debut ‘John’ is a beautifully fragile outsider folk record, now available again through Strawberry Rain.
On their debut album, THERE pull together the wild histories of Steve Mattos, Pat Crump, Josh Kemp and Brent Frattini and turn them into a strange, heavy, psych stew that’s equal parts chaotic and hypnotic.
The Rippers' 'Honesty' is a raw 1968 German beat record with early psych touches, organ, fuzz guitar and a rough, 60s charm.
On 'Moonstone', Kæry Ann follows the dark folk and psychedelia of her debut, 'Songs of Grace and Ruin', with heavier doom influences, exploring loss, nature and existential struggle.
‘Everlasting Tributes’ by the Champaign, Illinois-based Finchley Boys is a monster slab of heavy blues rock in that perfect ’60s psych vein. (Guerssen reissue)
‘Emerald Dream’ by Fangus is high-energy, fuelled heavy rock. Consisting of jagged riffs, eerie keys, and occult influences, ‘Emerald Dream’ expands the band’s universe into wilder, more enchanted dimensions. All in all, a fantastic release.
India Tigers in Texas return with ‘DOSE,’ a second album that builds on their psych-garage sound and captures the energy of a band becoming a firm part of the Texas psych scene.
Void resurfaces with lost hardcore punk recordings from D.C.’s outer edge. A must!
The Glass Key’s full-length album ‘Memoria,’ out via The Weird Beard and Echodelick Records, pushes the London trio’s instrumental psych sound into a heavier, more cinematic space, mixing electronic rhythms, layered guitars, dub, Afrobeat, marimba, violin, saxophone, and apocalyptic groove.
