those wizards of digging psychemagik doing the business once again. hot on the heels of last year s monstrous gotta hold on me / wildman they re letting folks know that they were still out there searching in the darkest recesses of the last 40+ years of popular and unpopular music, and boy oh boy are they good at it! the trip lives up to it s name. the track kicks off with some ultra beefed up psychedelic shenanigans, swirling, cacophonous sounds whirl and sweep and gradually drag us into the holographic tunnel, gradually giving way to some heavyweight drums and percussions and unfurling into a muscular psych-discoid beast. this one will send the kids crazy and will undoubtedly cause some damage in the club, both sonically and mentally. but what is the original? we hear you say... answers on a postcard please. sisters of the moon on the flip-side is a very different animal - all laid back, laconic steel-guitars and thundering slo-mo drums and percussion. the dark side of a rural witchcraft dream exposed here, almost menacing... and then? those vocals spring out of the mix amidst the throbbing sexually charged atmosphere and drag us back into the realm of near reality with sultry moans and groans. this one s woozy alright, but in the best possible way. so wrong, it s right and possibly the natural soundtrack to too many of those strange shots that that guy in the weird hat gave us earlier when we entered that country pub. what guy? i hear you ask.... ultimate freak-disco and deepest druid funk for the discerning and psychedelically inclined record consumer.

mit -more to say versions- erscheint die dub-version von -nothing more to say-, dem debüt der reggae-band the frightnrs aus queens, das nach seinem erscheinen 2016 mit kritikerlob überschüttet wurde. jeder song wurde vom prodzuenten victor axelrod liebevoll auseinandergenommen und neu gedacht. das ergebnis ist ein muss für fans von the frightnrs und von soulvoller musik generell. es geschieht selten, dass ein debütalbum – vor allem in einem polarisierenden genre wie reggae – von allen seiten mit so viel applaus begrüßt wird wie 2016 -nothing more to say- von the frightnrs. vielleicht liegt es einfach daran, dass dieses album genre-grenzen konsequent ignoriert und in keine schublade passt. es ist im wahrsten sinne des wortes ein großartiges album.
-more to say versions- ist ein frischer blick auf einen modernen klassiker. victor axelrod hat jeden song in liebevoller kleinarbeit auseinandergeschraubt und wieder neu zusammengebaut. das fertige album ist ein eigenständiges kunstwerk, ein muss für jeden fan der frightnrs und überhaupt für jeden, der musik mit seele liebt. -more to say versions- ist auf 3000 stück limitiert und mit psychedelischem 3d-cover ausgestattet, inklusive einer speziellen frightnrs-3d-brille, ein downloadcode liegt bei.
