Noiserock and heavy psychedelic music
The Myrrors make highly hypnotic music, you can feel the desert vibes flowing throughout their music, all the exotic instruments and the drone make it even more trippy. The slow rythm of their music, the sparse vocals give it an almost ominous vibe. These are some lost singles and just like all their other music it is really great stuff. If you like this then be sure to check out the side project of Grant Beyschau of The Myrrors called Tambourinen.
The Mirrors release a new album on Cardinal Fuzz called ‘The Lost 3rd album’ wich is something between acid folk and psychedelic rock. It is a quite fun album to listen to, it is trippy and catchy. A lot of variation in the tracks some go all bluesy and garage others are just amazing psych. Tune in now.
The Band Whose Name Is A Symbol has been featured a lot on Fuzzy Sun with their epic, laid back psych sound. Their music varies from epic psych to drone wich is alway trancelike. Now their is an 11 minute track up for a listen called ‘Mt. Olympus’ wich comes from the forthcoming LP ‘Berserkir II’ I think and a split vinyl with Anunnaki, both on Cardinal Fuzz. Check them out and buy the vinyl on the bandcamp.
It is always a joy for me to check out the latest releases on the Cardinal Fuzz label, it is mostly filled with heavy psych, kosmische music and trippy stuff. I mostly share most of these albums hear because they are always worth checking out. One of these bands is the duo Elkhorn, they produce trippy acoustic guitar music that soothes the soul and they have a new session out called ‘Acoustic Storm’. The next release is Herbcraft with the album ‘Thrash Heap’ wich is lofi psychedelic rock and it is really nice, the longer you listen to it to more it grabs you. This next release is with together with Centripetal Force (North America) for the upcoming release of Mugstar’s GRAFT, the follow up album to their much-lauded live collaboration with Can’s Damo Suzuki released earlier this year. The track ‘Zeta Potential’ is up for a listen. The latest release is from Alien Mustangs wich I am a pretty big fan of, their upcoming album ‘Beat of The Earth will be out October 30 and the first track is really trippy and is called ‘Sound of No Future’.
The label Cardinal Fuzz specializes in psychedelic rock, fuzzed out muzic and the likes and has released some really awesome stuff over the years on their label. I think I did not had the time yet to share their latest stuff so here goes:

Naujawanan Baidar
Naujawanan Baidar ended really high on my end of the year list. His combination of eastern music and psych hit me right in the feels. This are his two records combined. Absolutely delicious stuff.

The Manchester band Dead Sea Apes have released some real cool music in the past and now they are back with three improvised tracks. This time the 4 are accompanied by Nik Rayne (The Myrrors) for the recording of “Night Lands”. These three long tracks are full of hypnotic atmopshere. From slow and brooding cosmic psych to full on heavy psych I dare say this is Dead Sea Apes best work.
