While re-upping some of the older stuff of this blog, I discovered this little gem by ANGUS TWEED.
In a perfect world this song would have been a number 1 hit record!
(This song "I Never Wanna Surf in the Snow Again" is from "What Once Is …" from 2020 and it is not included in the collection by ANGUS TWEED you will find below, that features other fantastic songs from 1988–1994.)
Please support the artists and buy their music whenever it's possible.

Here's a psychedelic music video for a single "Bubble Wrap" by Los Angeles, CA based psychedelic rock musician SpaceyY. Enjoy!
„In support of their upcoming EP “Spacious”, SpaceyY
recently dropped a new music video for the single,
“Bubble Wrap”. Primarily shot during a trip out to
Baltimore last winter, the video also features live footage
from CVC’s Summer PsychOut Tour.
Following up this year’s first release “Currently ft.
Murtzel”, “Bubble Wrap” is a riff heavy jam that pays
homage to the current wave of neo-psych bands like
Oh Sees, Acid Dad, and Levitation Room while
staying unique with a variety of melodies and
vocal flows.
Already available on Youtube and Soundcloud,
Bubble Wrap is set to release on all platforms by Nov. 2nd.“
(Info from EPK)
Described to me as 'Psychedelic medieval rock' by JoDee Purkeypile (who is also a member of PLANET RYE CO). 'Call to Arms' by THE BATTLEMEN comes along as a great psychedelic garage album with surprising lyrics and themes, musically clearly rooted in mid/late-60ies psych-garage-punk and pop-psyke.
"The Battlemen
are the electric minstrels of Bastrop, Texas. Forging a unique sound
comprising garage rock, folk, blues, & jazz, the group released
their debut album on Emerald Wood in December 2008. Among it's musical
joys are the underground hit single "Psychedelic Moat", the fire-side gem "Fire Axe", the ridiculous romp of "Gigantic Spider", and the epic oddity "Demon in the Queen's Court". The band has yet to perform live in concert, but a show has been arranged for August, 2009. Visit the Battlemen on Myspace at: http://www.myspace.com/thebattlemen for further details. Until then enjoy the mono magic of CALL TO ARMS..."
'Psychedelic medieval rock'? ... aahm, wait a minute!
But then, why not? Remember THE PRETTY THINGS' psych masterpiece from 1968? Those guys were singing about burning balloons and Privates in a strange turn of the century war... So why not an album full of riding knights, magic axes, demons and witches? And what an album it is! At least some of these 11 songs should be on every psych head's play list.
Recommended (not only to fans of THE DUKES OF STRATOSPHEAR, NUGGETS, RUBBLE and the like)!
Favourite tracks: 'Witch of Colors' and 'Oubliette Blues'

1. ACID DAZE - Part I: Trip No. 5 Into Inner Space
a) A DREAM IN GREEN
Forever and ever and ever
a dream in green green green
Forever and ever, ever
a dream in greeeeeeeen
Under the shower - uoooooh
Forever and ever and ever
a dream in green green green
Forever and ever, ever
a dream in green green green
b) (IT MAKES) NO DIFFERENCE
It's a strange world
we can get killed
anytime
by electrical monks
Words always lie
come too soon or too late
better say nuthin'
leave it to fate
I don't mind -'cause I know
It makes no difference anyway
I don't mind, if you treat me unkind
It makes no difference anyway
(It makes no difference!)
c) CREATION
To create and to create
gives the feeling to be God
To create!
d) BREATHING IN THE BEGINNING
Everything's like breathing
in the beginning of a new style
To be devine or be denied
To be devine or be denied
2. ACID DAYS - Part II: March To The Center Of the Brain
a) OUT OF TIME
Sitting 'round, I'm waiting
Confronted again with death in my dreams
Numb brain
The fear of goin' insane
And still out of time
o u t o f t i m e!
b) YOU CAN BE ANYONE THIS TIME AROUND
And I know
you can be anyone this time around
Once in your life you got to decide
The art of life is to do it all in time
To love and hate
and to destroy
Every word already said
Every thought already thought
And I know
It's what I am...
c) ACID REIGN
Too much acid
too little head
A little smile in a while
instead
Words are forming
they disappear
d) OPTICAL PROMISE
Too much energy, I believe
Optical promise
A girl in a mirror with long blond hair
Avoid to stare
Passing the time
I'm quite afraid of anything
But India's calling
Delhi Blues
Bombay, Goa
Walking Blues!
This is a true "psychedelic" recording in its literal sense. And probably the most "far out" musical work of the one-man-home-recording-project ANYONE'S DREAMCOLOUR. One improvised guitar track was recorded, while under the influence of some psychedelic substance, and later, over the next few weeks/months three more tracks were overdubbed with various guitars, voices, drums and other sounds – trying to resemble the different moods of a psychedelic experience. The result is – not surprising – an unnerving, often disturbing bizarre listening adventure. This for sure isn't straight rock music! Rather a kind of a rough soundscape, giving one the opportunity to witness an inner space travel. Some tracks, like for example Out of Time, are heavily disjointed, resembling quite effectively the affect of psychedelic substances.
No Difference was (in a more rock oriented version/arrangement) later played live by CLOUD NINE (and ORANGE) and also recorded.
Be warned! This recording is surely something of an acquired taste. Different sounds for different people...
Should be listened to in the dark on headphones!
The Acid Daze film was based on the Super 8 film Colours - Death of The Mind, which was shown as a background integrated into the light show at CLOUD NINE & THE VITAMIN C performances.
The original film was repeatedly re-cut and extended until it was digitised and spiced up with new sequences in March 2023. This is definitely the final version.
Dies ist eine "psychedelische" Tonaufnahme im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes. Und wahrscheinlich das "abgefahrenste" musikalische Werk des Ein-Mann-Home-Recording-Projekts ANYONE'S DREAMCOLOUR. Ein improvisierter Gitarrentrack wurde aufgenommen, während der Solokünstler unter dem Einfluss einer psychedelischen Substanz stand, und später, im Laufe der darauffolgenden Wochen/Monate, wurden drei weitere Tonspuren mit verschiedenen Gitarren, Stimmen, Schlagzeug und anderen Klängen eingespielt – in dem Versuch, die verschiedenen Stimmungen einer psychedelischen Erfahrung darzustellen. Das Ergebnis ist – wenig überraschend – ein oft anstrengendes, verstörendes, bizarres Hörerlebnis. Dies ist mit Sicherheit keine Rockmusik im eigentlichen Sinn! Vielmehr handelt es sich um eine Art Klanglandschaft, die einem die Möglichkeit gibt, Zeuge einer inneren Weltraumfahrt zu werden. Einige Tracks, wie z. B. Out of Time, sind wie in verschiedenen Zeitschichten seltsam verschoben und veranschaulichen dadurch sehr effektiv die Wirkung psychedelischer Substanzen.
No Difference wurde (in einer rockigeren Version/mit einem anderen Arrangement) später von CLOUD NINE (und auch der Frankfurter Band ORANGE) live gespielt und ebenfalls aufgenommen.
Warnung! Diese Aufnahmen sind sicherlich nichts für den Mainstream-Hörer! Sollte im Dunkeln mit Kopfhörern angehört werden!
Als Grundlage für den Acid Daze-Film diente der Super-8-Film Colours – Death of The Mind, der bei CLOUD NINE & THE VITAMIN C-Auftritten in die Lightshow integriert als Hintergrund gezeigt wurde.
Der ursprüngliche Film wurde immer wieder umgeschnitten und erweitert, bis er im März 2023 digitalisiert und mit neuen Sequenzen aufgepeppt wurde. Dies ist definitiv die finale Fassung.
