Thread subtitle TBD Due to popular demand and major overlap from the habitants of Stoner/Doom/Sludge, here’s Psych/Freak: A thread for the latest and greatest developments in psychedelic music Seems like there’s been a lot of cool stuff going on lately in this admittedly pretty broad umbrella term/quasi-genre. And there is plenty of conversation to be had on the evergreen artists that have been poking out third eyes for the better part of a century. At any rate, there’s been enough stuff in the doom metal thread that is incredibly adjacent but left a lot of posters worrying that they are too off topic; I’m hoping this thread provides an outlet for that kinda stuff. Other things I look forward to: -rambling about Gram Parsons -getting recommendations on obscure krautrock (I feel like this plays here) -tour information for active bands (in the vein of how we operate in SDS) Here’s some stuff to get the ball rolling: Kikagaku Moyo - new and active, touring regularly with hooks and longform sets https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8y3nM6tEqw Please mail me more weird post-Dylan acid-scorched folk like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C15LXv4uEDI poo poo I stole from the phiz thread years back https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr0XWmEbiMQ It’s Halloween times - spin it for Roky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZEi-13NqF0 Sincerely, Norm The OP

HenryJLittlefinger posted:I also like the new pop psych stuff that sounds like the Byrds, like Temples Reminds me that the Peoples Temple haven't done anything in awhile and it turns out they broke up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81x1jUomk70 Saw them with Lee Baines III I think at Comet Ping Pong a few years back, weird pairing. That whole album is great And speaking of the Byrds I've been listening to Gene Clark's No Other a lot lately...need to branch out to his other stuff. I'm also a decade behind on Brian Jonestown Massacre releases, any essentials there, or should I just work backwards?

A human heart posted:it's especially funny because that thread is just a dump of youtube links with no discussion, and check it out, now there's another one of those. So post and discuss, skidmark. I don't really know what is psychedelic or even how to adequately explain it, but a whole lot of the artists I listen to are apparently psych. I've never been a big fan of Cream, but I appreciate that they gave rise to a lot of bands I do like, such as Earthless, who come up a lot in discussions of stoner/doom/sludge. They check the psych boxes of long form jams and a bunch of fuzzy guitars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAMCQt_2R1I But then I see Mondo Drag getting mentioned as psych, and they're much more similar to progressive rock like Yes, albeit with a bit more fuzz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVIO04DijJQ Youtube's music algorithm is really interesting and has introduced me to stuff I've never considered like African Psychedelic. This album African Scream Contest popped up a while back and I like it. Not at all what I would have thought of or sought out if I thought "I want to listen to some psych right now." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jk1JXc9ifRQ And what the gently caress is the deal with Goat? I came across them years ago when I first got into afrobeat (which I have a hard time pigeonholing them as), but they do have afrobeat elements. I think they capture the original 1960s psychedelic song structure and guitar sound, like Jorma Kaukonen and Paul Kantner's in Jefferson Airplane, better than a lot of "psych" bands, and the really dense percussion is cool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SyPyBHJmiI Tame Impala does ok with the current mainstream spin on the original pop psych sound I think, but I like maybe 1 out of 5 of their songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hI1Xe1sAPgY HenryJLittlefinger fucked around with this message at 17:04 on Oct 30, 2019 |

Here’s some good poo poo that I guess goes here, it’s a Thai wedding band that does some great space jamming. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYGl-l0Toig To the best of my knowledge that’s the same band led by a guy named Beer that got discovered on YouTube and subsequently put out a few albums on some indie label in the US. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRg410DDeQE https://www.wired.com/2014/08/khun-narin-electric-phin-band/

I was talking to a friend at work about heavy dark hippie music and he found this comp at a record store later that night. So far he’s loving it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E73WERLBAm8 Someone in the comments says it was nominated for a Grammy last year so you know it’s good

There's a second volume of Scream Contest as well. On a related note, here's the title track of a great Nigerian psych rock comp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGu3l6aq8sA And it may be pushing up against the boundaries of the thread, but if M'dou Moctar comes to your town, see him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZvPoE0EH1o

Mdou Moctar is insanely good live. Not too much hyperbole to compare him to a modern-day Jimi Hendrix.

i feel like kendra amalie is a name to pay attention to. this track has some espers vibes but there are faheyesque guitar workouts as well as loud psych freakouts. one of my favorite albums of the year https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hu6NidD1DY8 this one gets a bit noisier https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kby5csAbxj8 global tetrahedron fucked around with this message at 17:20 on Nov 2, 2019 |

Here’s a road doc about acid mother’s temple’s 2002 USA tour https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zTlMXL4qFY it’s kind of slow but probably accurate to what touring internationally is like for a Japanese psychedelic band

So far he’s loving it Welp thanks for this, I now have ordered it on the heathen's format (CD). It reminds me a lot of Lord Sutch, just without the terrible vocals. To complete the contrasts his album has made a couple of worst album ever polls and lists according to Wikipedia so you know it's bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSbScjc0cIk I still unironically listen to it. An edit so to not double post have another YouTube link to a lighter band that I think was someone's side project. There was only two albums released and this is the first one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h054zPv4-1s Turbinosamente fucked around with this message at 01:25 on Nov 9, 2019 |
