They've already been mentioned, but the first Brainticket record ('Cottonwoodhill') is insanely good, a heady cocktail of prog, funk, and kraut with some mad bint shouting like she's being done up the chuff on shrooms. Freakin' ace stuff.

Thanks so much for all these recommendations !

I'll be diving in for a while now to catch up on all of these. Feel free to throw some more at me, because I'm really excited about finding this sound I want to hear.

thanks again.

napalm death. I'm not trying to be funny. I think they do psychedelic better than most bands that call themselves psychedelic.

Shit.

"Les Raillizes Denudes."
How did I forget them.

Also

Finland's "Avarus" (or associated bands Pylon etc...)
Hanadensha (Narcotic guitar, not the earlier rockin stuff)

Fuck it, I'd recommend it either way.

aww! thanks! we love pot.

I'll quadruple recommend the Mutantes records, Os Mutantes and Tecnicolor, and to a lesser, but still solid degree Ando Meio Desligado and Mutantes.


there's a french psych pop comp called "Wizz" that's prettty great and the self titled record by the United States of America.

I was kinda wondering the same thing, like maybe the person who posted this is (1) joking, (2) defines "psychedelic" differently than most people, or (3) has heard some really "trippy" SJ stuff I'm not aware of. Either way, I second the recommendation. SJ are a fine band, and groovy tunes like "I Never Met a Woman Who Didn't Deserve to Die" make me feel like I'm trippin' balls across the cosmos in a technicolor daydream, or something.

Please listen to Chrome. The Half-Machine Lip Moves/Alien Soundtracks release is some of the best, non-hippy psychedelia I have ever heard. Started listening to it over 15 years ago, and I still put it on every once in a while (read: under the influence).

By the way, Mr. Creed has almost no liver left these days. Hepatitis C sucks.
