So when the Eternal Tapestry guys ripped through town last month, they dropped off a few cdrs, needless to say, they were gone in no time. We even had to keep bugging them to send more down to the shop because so many of you loyal psych heads couldn't get enough of ETAP's cosmic fury!! Well, we are pleased to present the latest full length lp from Portland's heaviest psych sludge trio, Palace of The Night Skies! The good people at Three Lobed bring us this tripped out, fuzzed out psychedelic masterpiece, golden shimmering riffs plodding on into infinity, wailing fuzz from the depths of a swirling acid trip, all anchored to Earth by Jed Bindeman's (Heavy Winged) in the pocket, solid as rock drumming. Prism Light Traveler, Side A, kicks things off with a krauty, stoned-out riff, repetitive and hypnotic, Nick Bindeman (JOMF, Tunnels) and Dewey Mahood sacrifice their guitars at the psychedelic altar of kraut riffage. Layers of wailing feedback, endless washes of blaring tones burn a hole right through the speakers, the gates of infinity are opened and all trippers are welcome inside. Side B, titled The Hidden Void, begins with the slowest riff we've heard these guys unleash. Soooo slooow and trudging, like someone falling asleep while playing, kinda reminds us of listening to a Les Rallizes Denudes lp at half speed. Other layers of wailing guitar and distant drones slowly creep into the mix as the slow paced, stonerific trudge plods on. We love how heeeeavy and loud the record sounds, so raw and fucked up, just they type of low-fi warmth we love with our psych. Palace of The Night Skies is essential, especially for fans of Bong, Wooden Shjips, Parson Sound, Loop or anything remotely psychedelic. Limited to 730 copies, each lp comes with a cd (cd also includes one bonus track!) and is housed in a beautifully prinited, cosmic cover. Don't be left in the dust on this heavy-kraut gem!!
