Weird Owl New York, New York
Since releasing their debut album in 2007, Weird Owl have firmly cemented their place in the international psychedelic underground. Championed by none other than legendary Brian Jonestown Massacre frontman Anton Newcombe , Weird Owl’s music has been called “melodic, pleasant, head numbing” (All Music) and “exhilarating stuff, conjuring up images of some vast, cosmic desert” (Tiny Mix Tapes). ... more

It's All In Your Head
by The Kundalini Genie
supported by 12 fans who also own “Karma, The Devil & Some Insects (I Am the Air Force)”
Similar to King Gizzard anything this band releases is pure gold. I remember finding them a couple of years ago during a not so eventful office day. I was instantly blown away, so as an avid "odd" music collector I did my research, and came to the conclusion that this is one of the greatest band of all time. I just wish I could get a physical copy. Oh well, one day I will.

Psychedelic Rock reminiscent of early Catherine Wheel and Ride - not a bad thing. Quality musicianship and great use of spoken word sample on You Had It All - possibly Terence McKenna? Update - sample is Alan Watts - thanks to the Angry Arab for putting me right! RIYL Superfjord, Sundial circa 'Other Way Out' and the above.

Big, clanging psych-rock from this Arizona outfit fuses monk-like vocals with slow-winding guitars for songs that feel like strange hymns.

This is some great music for a morose, rainy day. Lush, sedate, bluesy, and with a certain apocalyptic flair, most evident on White Horses, which sounds very much like a psychedelic blues dirge. I appreciate that the songs sometimes lose themselves along the way, giving way to some beautiful psych explorations. I also enjoy the vocals on this - they sometimes waver, but they fit the music so well.
