This is a wonderful, wonderfully generic psyche-rock album with fulsome female vocals from Joana Brito who sings elegantly on spacy songs like Starlight and vibrantly on the spaced-out heavy rock of opener Imposing Sun.
A Portuguese fuzzadelic / psychedelic rock band with other wizard-honed
members Paulo Ferreira, João Lugatte, João Mendes, this fine foursome
demonstrates there are no geographical boundaries to the acquisition of the ‘generic’
as I have outlined it so positively in my previous posting on Dead
Feathers, though these two bands are quite distinctive and thus prove, as well,
how the generic is not narrowly defining.
The wah-wah propelled psychedelia of appropriately
psyche-titled Symphony of the Ironic
Sympathy is a perfect example of this band’s distinctive trajectory along
the precursor line of such far-out music and musicianship. This is a great
track, and Brito excels in a musical diatribe of exalted passion on the song’s
close. That this is followed by a gorgeous blues-riffed [a la Free's Moonshine] wah-wah in Soul Keeper is bliss to these generic-adoring
ears.
Get it here.
