Album Notes & Community Reviews

Unearthing incredibly rare recordings from the very fringes of the late-1960s British underground, this archival split release presents a fascinating glimpse into heavy, fuzz-drenched psychedelia. The collection contrasts gentle acid-folk meanderings with primitive, distorted hard rock experimentation.
