about

Years ago in an interview, I mentioned we were working on a sci-fi rock opera...this ep comprises 4 songs from that unreleased album, which is called June 9, 1951. On that date, the Velvet Curtain opens, allowing travelers from the planet Neptune to reach earth. The songs are thus a sort of back-and-forth narrative between the rulers of Neptune and a team of dope-smoking New York scientists who travel back from 1967 to block their plans for conquest with surrealism and a Mellotron Mark II. Like you do. Perhaps the whole album will be released one day. If you happen to own a record label and are keen to press vinyl, do let us know. Cheers, Peter Quinnell

Here’s a colourful cosmos to discover between shimmering 60ties pop and psychedelia. It sounds unique, although the aesthetic is very specific and some influence easy to pinpoint. In the sum of it: highly enjoyable and worthwhile! Sandra Zettpunkt

I'm so glad these people exist to continue the tradition of psychedelic music without ruining everything with reverb vocals as most neopsychedelia musicians do. dereidechs
