Guest phaeton Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 impossible for me to make such a list, for i think pretty much all nonpsy i listen to is still very psychedelic for example i'm listening to the treble spankers right now which is an instrumental surf/guitar rock band, and i think they are just incredibly psychedelic in a melodic sense, even though the structure of their music is pretty straightforward .. but a few minutes ago i was listening to richard devine's weird chaotic harsh bleeping nonsense music which has hardly any melodies in it at all and i still think it's very psychedelic ... and next up i could be listening to some extremely monotone soundscapes while lying in my bed and all kinds of kaleidoscopic images might start popping up in my head, even though there is neither melody nor chaos, but just some neverending drones .. so what i mean to say is: psychedelia's something that is in the ear of the beholder .. the universe is psychedelic .. at least my universe is.

Guest phaeton Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 erh, well okay maybe britney spears isn't, but i'm sure even her producers will have put in some filtersweep in some track of hers which, in a different musical context, would have sounded extremely psychedelic to us .. and maybe that filtersweep is what subconsciously makes all those poor teens want to listen to that track of hers over and over again, you can never tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest D-Dave Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 I dont know, whats so psychedelic about Jefferson Airplane really? Maybe the lyrics. SKINNY PUPPY is my vote. Damn psychedelic stuff, awesome sounds. Check albums "Bites", "Cleanse, fold and manipulate", "Vivi sect VI", "Too dark park". MY BLOODY VALENTINE is also definitely psychedelic pop noise with twisted and out of tune melodies and weird noisy sounds, yet melodic.

Guest Firestorm Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 D-Dave, check out "After bathing at Baxter's" by Jefferson Airplane, acid rock at it's best, psychedelic as fuck. (ps: Refused used the beginning of that album for the intro of The Shape of Punk to Come, if you happen to know Refused, they are swedish! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dr. Krelm Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 D-Dave: nice tastes! Skinny Puppy always did it for me - 2 Dark Park is my favorite by them, although I will always have a love for Rabies for nostalgia (my introduction into electronic music) Also, My Bloody Valentine rocks - Loveless still stands as one of the best psychedelic rock albums ever. Mercury Rev is another cool one - fucked up layered soundscapes with a nice psy-rock background and extremely cool vocals. See You on the Other Side is their best album...it has blown my mind on many an occasion. There is a mostly unknown band from Texas called 7% Solution that is responsible for one of the best musical-trip experiences I have ever had. Amazingly elegant and beautiful layered guitar soundscapes, and they have one of the few vocalists that seems (to me) to use his voice more as an instrument than the typical vocalist. Sort of like MBV turned down and spread out a notch (if that makes any sense). Along those lines, early Swervedriver also is nice and layered. Raise and Mezcal Head are their best albums (the rest after that went downhill). More rock than the others, but great guitar layering. My downstairs neighbor is an expert on the '70s psy-rock and a lot of that stuff is damned cool. I am just not familiar with any of the band names. I can occasionally get into some particularly bizarre hip-hop when in that mindstate - The Herbalizer has done some especially cool stuff.

Guest Zaramatu Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 Priam - 3 Distances / Irregular Signs Priam - Diffraction The first one is very accessible in its sound, a real mindtrip. It's a lot more harmonic than the second album. The second album, Diffraction, is almost insanely psychedelic and sounds like a crossover between freeform jazz, IDM & other freeform electronica, space- psychedelic- and krautrock, ambient & new age (it even has some brainsynchronized frequencies in some places), opera, classic music, some Shpongle-like sound-experiment (strange voices floating in the background) and even some sounds that reminds a bit about psytrance. I guess it's pretty much what Kox Box would end up with if they tried to create psy-rock instead of psytrance. It also has a sound quality compared to Shpongle, Ozric Tentacles, or even better than that. Just listen to the intro of the first track, totally out of this world! It's mainly experimental spacerock, and has some jazzy sounds (saxophones in one track, YUK!) that might sound annoying at first, but once you get used to it, it's enormously psychedelic. Some of the jazzy sounds actually sounds very good, though. You just have to get over a few pretty annoying sounds they have sadly put into some of the tracks. Those sounds do, however, add to the albums psychedelicness as a whole. Also features some extremely odd & seriously twisted time-signatures and drum-rhytms, which would make even the Ozric Tentacles sound mainstream! Also makes full use of the left and right channels, with sounds constantly panning and morphing between the two channels. Oh, and Amazon.com has both of the Priam albums. Europeans can get it from this webshop... http://www.missingpiece.net Check "Catalogue", letter P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
