BigJackTaylor Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Who else is into psychedelic guitar music? Apologies if no one else is into it. Anyway, enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 It's not a genre I often find myself listening to but I dig a little Acid Mothers Temple and a few other of Kawabatas projects. Les Rallizes Dénudés, Flower Travellin' Band and Bordoms get thrown on a bit when the mood arises too, you could say I have a type. Oh and how could I forget Spacemen 3, they were stupidly good.

BigJackTaylor Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 Never heard of acid mothers temple and had a look on YouTube. They are awesome. Japanese band Kikagaku moyo are another new fave of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted September 17, 2018 Moderators Share Posted September 17, 2018 Yeah, I really like it. But I don't know a lot about it and I'm quite picky with what I like so hoping this thread throws up some good stuff! I like the stuff that's got lots of guitar noodling.

Taking Drugs To Make Music To Take Drugs To Was a mantra adopted by two friends and I for our lo-fi project in the late 90s! Are we classing the commercial / popular end of the spectrum (Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev and stuff of that ilk?) If so, count me in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Dem Wanz Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Ace user name and avatar @BigJackTaylor - I really like that Tame Impala song also. Can't say I know much about the genre but will be keeping tabs on this to expand my knowledge and Spotify playlist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Flaming Lips but will need to go and listen to some Mercury Rev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please tell me you had something recorded. Loop were a bit special, I originally found them through a Godflesh cover/split EP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you know Fraser from Freakbeat records / Way Ahead and loads of other bands (including Sexual Deviance, the finest punk band Cov ever produced), well it was me, him and our mate Simon. We were all having mental breakdowns, got together round Frasers every Thursday to take drugs and make music. Recorded this in 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJackTaylor Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 Quite possibly the best named band over the past few years. Psychedelic Porn Crumpets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted September 17, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted September 17, 2018 What a band. There are a lot more chilled out psychedelic tracks on that particular album, but I picked this because the devil likes psychedelic too. Am a right, lads?

The Gaffer Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Acid Mothers Temple are always in Cork. They come here to play to about 12 people around this time every year, because they just really like the place, and it's always mental. Last time they played at twelve in the afternoon during the jazz weekend and one of them wore a dress and started doing a mock striptease in front of bemused punters coming in because their gigs are always free. They're always about in charity shops the day after. On the subject of psychedelic music, it's more of a mutated evolution of the mentality that's not fit for the thread but I've always loved the late 80s/early 90s American stuff like Green Jelly and Butthole Surfers who basically took the flower power nuances of 60s guitar music, chucked it in the bin and said "what if it's a really bad trip, instead?"

Sphinx Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Some of Kevin Parker of Tame Impala's mates. They have some good music and were great when I saw them live. More Aussies. These were supporting Tame Impala and I loved this because it has a clubby/festival vibe to it. Kevin Parker's ex. He plays the instruments and produces it. Can you tell I quite like Tame Impala?
