Phil Dirt - Reverb Central - PO Box 1609, Felton, CA 95018-1609 USA Collection: Beyond The Calico Wall
 | This is a pretty gnarly set of lower echelon psych singles, four of which are instros, and one of those is a strange surf issue. Quite a cool release! |
Picks: An Experimental Terror, Tripsy, Changes, Continuation, Long Hair Soulful
Track by Track Review
An Experimental Terror Psychedelic (Instrumental)
This is a relatively structure free drug induced jam with heavily reverbed guitar and an essentially free form mess of notes. Miles from a song, "An Experimental Terror" is also difficult to listen to.
Surf (Instrumental)
This is a psychedelic surf epic of the first order from a garage somewhere in the middle of nowhere. Dribbling double picked surf lead, psych rhythm, and an eerie sound combine to create a disturbing vision of acid waves in space. Very cool!
Psychedelic Sitar (Instrumental)
The Ceyleib People reportedly included Ry Cooder. This is a very trippy instro with some inverted blues, backwards weirdness, and sitar swirling. It's a raga for your empty Aspirin bottle.
Psychedelic (Instrumental)
Guitar jam over psychedelic mask, with some wholly non-melodic double picking and plenty of whacked out sounds. More drone than song.
Psychedelic (Instrumental)
This is a long and tortured Fillmore type jam with a blues underbelly and a feedback sustain. It's pretty cool!
