Another of the 3 7"'s released this week in the Trensmat Hawkwind covers trilogy is the Bardo Pond/ Kinski split 7". Yep lets unleash the beast of Hawkwind to a load of psyched out funsters who are getting into the likes of Magic Lantern and Wooden Shjips. The fuzzy psyche space rock revival is happening whether you like it or not. I quite like the Bardo Pond track on here as they cover 'Lord Of Light'. It's a big heavy mogadon rinsed sludgey mess of a tune which makes me wish I had long hair and was dancing around with a load of big titted topless dancers like what Hawkwind used to have follow 'em around and that. Kinski cover 'Master of The Universe' and it's a fuzzy classic. I can't but help think of Monster Magnet. Man they were a great band. You should check out Tab folks. That rules!

Bardo Pond take Lord of Light on a psyche rock astral journey. A psychbliss epic version where guitars swirl and shimmer, drifting lazily across a gauzy sun dappled sonic sky. A spaced out jam of expansive guitars, dusty clouds of sonic whir, grungy outbursts and metallic undertones. Kinski lock into Masters of the Universe and build it from Krautrocking metronome-drone outer-space atmospherics to fuzzed-out mantric heaviness, fusing their twice removed blues with kosmische grooves. Tracks: Bardo Pond - Lords of Light, Kinski - Masters of the Universe
