lyrics

Come now, little child.
For a while,
take a load off among our branches.
Theres no need to do, only be -
Rest is responsibility
Its a matter of perspective,
concentration
taking time to wander
and dwell among the dreams you had when you were young
and finding freedom in fancy.
But did I go wrong?
oh what did I do
and fight off fleeting feelings that distract my every move
Have I been seen?
Can you teach me to conceal?
Put an ending to this
running from my own past now.
Breathe now, close your eyes
feel the vibe
hear the light inside
its a power like invisibility
the power to be
not-a-thing
but did I go wrong?
oh what did I do
and fight off fleeting feelings that distract my every move
have I been seen?
can you teach me to conceal?
put an ending to this,
running from my own past now.
Just as learning gives birth to knowing
Just as dreaming gives birth to growing
Just as empty gives birth to filling
Just as silence gives way to teaching
Just as justice gives birth to penance
Just as Isis gives birth to Horus
Just as three gives birth to four
Just as one begets more and more and more and more and more and more

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+... rick-taylor

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst

It's only four tracks, yes, but it's four tracks of great cosmic psychedelia. Here's my full review - https://www.7thlevelmusic.com/?p=12710 Nik Havert
