...according to our Dave on Thu 22 Apr, 2010.
I had my tarot cards read once. They were quite kind to me but they also told me that one shining day, I would have to listen to ambient/drone tomfoolery... Well lookee here sir. Expo 70's latest slice of vinyl is a blissed-out floaty affair. It wouldnt sound out of place on a film soundtrack. It's well cosmic.The flipside has a blazing guitar solo that was in danger of taking me into space. Luckily I am carrying what you might call "holiday weight" so my bulk stopped me... Phew..
'Tarot Reading' is a mind-blowing heavily spaced out excursion thatbears all the key characteristics of Expo '70 at his peak with acluttering of treated guitar and keyboard drones that stir up a sea oftexture slowly evolving the track into all consuming mass of ambientresonant fudge. Then flip over to side B for 'Solar Drifting' which starts with somenervous pulsating electronic glitches before skittering guitarmeanderings are introduced gradually building a paranoid energy into anexpansive whacked out star-gazing tangle of melody and sound. Breathless genius.
PRESS: "This music has to be the work of some immortal group of dronelords, sitting in their multidimensional fortress, atop some mysterious lost mountain, who in their infinite wisdom, allow their dreamlike drones and angelic ambience to fall from the sky and settle over us like a light dusting of snow..." - Aquarius Records (San Francisco, CA)
