The Hooveriii spaceship has landed: After four albums exploring the realms of prog and space rock, Manhunter (The Reverberation Appreciation Society) brings the Los Angeles band back down to Earth. But all those cosmic excursions seem to have hurled them back in time—right into the heart of the 1970s. It’s…

Growing up on the outskirts of Houston, The Albinos are now poised to step into some massive Texan footprints with their blend of psych and garage rock. The tradition of psychedelic rock runs deep in this U.S. state, and The Albinos joined the lineage with their 2024 debut The Montana….

During their 2022 tour, Holy Wave found some time to step into Studio 22 in Los Angeles and work with Tomas Dolas. A few tracks from those sessions have already surfaced, but with Studio 22 Singles and B-Sides (Suicide Squeeze), we now get the full picture. The laid-back psych rockers…

“Take Drugs” was the name of a single by The Mushroom Club—so right away, we know what kind of mushrooms we’re dealing with. The Scottish band leans into a sleepy, psychedelic rock sound, with more than a passing nod to shoegaze. Walk Into The Light (P.U.G.) is their latest release,…

A double A-side single set to be released this Saturday for Record Store Day via Rocket…

For over a decade, Throw Down Bones have fused psych rock with industrial, noise, and krautrock across their three albums. This mix creates an overwhelming intensity—especially in a live setting. Now, you can experience it at home. Live At Fuzz Club Festival 2024 (Rubber Duck) captures seven tracks from last…

For 26 years, Dead Meadow have been traveling through space and time. But last year, the band suffered a heavy loss—bassist Steve Kille passed away from cancer, leaving the band as a duo. Under this shadow, Voyager to Voyager (Heavy Psych Sounds) is a deeply melancholic album. Kille was still…

The sound of POPULATION II has always had its charm—frantic psych rock infused with prog elements, pulling off five twists in two seconds. But stretched over an entire album, it often felt overwhelming, almost exhausting, as the Canadian band set everything ablaze. With Maintenant Jamais (Bonsound), that changes. Producer Dominic…
