Hey Seth Man,

Just picked up Evil Acidhead on the strength of your review - what a trip (the album's great too!).

Reminds me in a way of Jimmy Page's Lucifer Rising score crossed with early Heldon...a strange & strong brew indeed.

Thanx!

I can hear the LR score for sure. The guitar parts reminded me of Paul Leary at times (like "Barking Dogs" from Piouhgd). I've been meaning to listen to Monster Magnet for like 30 years, so maybe now's the time.

I still really enjoy the album McBain did with Kandodo (Simon Price from The Heads).

Hey thanks man. That looks wild. I just found it on bandcamp and will give it a listen asap [EDIT: Just did - It's awesome!]

Here's an early Monster Magnet album I found recently which I recommend wholeheartedly - Test Patterns Vol 1:

Great call about Paul Leary - you're right on. I've been listening a lot lately to the Surfers' Double Live, especially the amazing Psychedelic Jam. Certainly traffics in the same heavy vibes...

Thanks again for the heads up!

Oh, and another McBain-related release that was just reissued a few weeks back on God Unknown is the terrific Declaration of Conformity by Wellwater Conspiracy, the band he was in with a few fellas from Soundgarden in the early 90s. Really amazing acid fried retro-psych songcraft ala Syd and Roky ...
