Album Notes & Community Reviews

Embracing the Sufi faith heavily influenced the band's direction on their second and final album, resulting in a remarkably peaceful, laid-back atmosphere. The British group largely discards their heavy psych origins in favor of a sprawling, country-tinged roots rock sound brimming with fluid guitar improvisations.
