limited "electric balloon" colour 2lp with poster this collection draws from the neo psychedelic movement that took hold in california during the early to mid 80’s, one that melded the psychedelia, country, garage rock, avant-garde and pop of the 60’s with the diy ethos of the then burgeoning punk scene, a hypnotic amalgamation of sound that came in staunch contrast to the blown out sonic excesses of the time.twisted dream machine takes you on a trip from the city to the desert, as the kaleidoscope of noise drifts from the the dream syndicate’s velvet underground inspired take on crazy horse and the three o’clock’s chiming baroque powerpop, to rain parade’s dreamy beatlesesque melodies and the bangles hook-laden love inspired pop. also featured are the wondrous sounds of green on red, the long ryder’s, game theory, true west, thin white rope and others highly worth your attention. if you are not familiar with some of the bands here, you will surely question how that is possible. the paisley underground, if anything, encapsulated a certain musical mindset, an outlook where the past and the future would collide in the moment. this thread would bond the bands, yet each honed it’s own sound in a twisted incarnation of the seeds planted two decades earlier.
