I don't know about you but I am a HUGE fan of what Japan's psychedelic bands have to give to the rest and especially to our Americentric ideals and culture. It's thanks to Japan that psychedelia is alive and well but to just call it psychedelic seems to rob them of the credit they're due. When that word comes to mind, the cheese comes a tumblin' over with thoughts of farfisa organs, paisley everything, and advocates of the psychedelic movement like Timothy Leary educating squares on acid. The Japanese seem to have incorporated not only the "brown acid" feel to it but with an overwhelming, destructive sound of feedback, reverb, and let's not forget, NOISE!!!
Keiji Haino, The Jacks, Les Rallizes, Flower Travellin' Band, the list goes on and on. Today, great bands like LSD March will seriously fuck you up inside if you sit down and let the music go on cruise control. So without further a do, all the credit and love in the world to the giving people at wehavenozen.blogspot.com for putting up these ultra lovely compilations of that sound, ya dig?
BROWN ACID
