This record left our Phil feeling happy.
Anyone into Psychedelia could do themselves no harm in checking out these comps we got in called 'Psychedelica' Volumes 1 and 2. Both are 2 CD sets and they feature the new wave of psychedelic pop bands (the third wave apparently). Volume 1 features The Black Angels, Brian Jonestown Massacre, Electric Prunes, Silver Apples, Fuzztones, The Telescopes, The Lazily Spun, Fuxa etc.... Volume 2 features The Black Angels, People's Revolutionary Choir, Heroes Of Switzerland, Lovetones, Flowers Of Hell, Hopewell, Soft Hearted Scientists, Their Hearts were Full of Spring etc... and lots more... Each set looks 30 plus tracks long so it's good value for money. Its pretty much all (reasonably) contemporary artists doing the whole psych pop thing and it's very much like a modern take on the Pebbles, Nuggets comps. Excellent!

Don’t just take our word for it. Take a look at what the critics say:
Wonderfully eclectic double cd where the most obscure offerings are the highlights. **** UNCUT
You’ll be wigging out like its 1966! Dazed & Confused
Right from the start the album sparkles with quality brimming with atmosphere and confirming the fact that this kind of music is alive and well, with sparkling eyes and a manic grin on its face. Terrascope
Best kept secrets of the spangled underground an absolute gem it has to be said, no tat or fillers here just perfectly formed cornucopia narcotic ally enhanced nuggets for you to blissfully recline, chill and travel along the cusp of the minds eye to. You know you wanna hear it now! Losing Today
A well balanced selection of uppers, downers, spin-you-rounders and weirdly coloured ones where you dont know what to do with but take them anyway this is music for kids with their eyes rolled back in their heads and their heads in the clouds. Kitten Painting
A new double cd compilation featuring some of the best Psychedelic bands around Creation Records
Retro, fairly uncompromising but also has its fair share of classics an entertaining record packed with droning rhythms and literally overflowing with acid. Crud Magazine
An entertaining couple of hours Soundsxp
A lot of excellent melodies all very summer afternoon, laid back with swirling melodies and hooks gorgeously chiming guitars. To Hell With
