Album Notes & Community Reviews

Boasting intricate twelve-string guitar work and swirling flute arrangements, 'Schizophrenia' perfectly straddles the line between heavy psychedelic rock and esoteric British folk. The songwriting frequently drifts into spiritual and loosely Christian lyrical territory, backed by frantic instrumental passages that shift dynamically in tone and tempo. It represents an ambitious high point for the early seventies UK acoustic-electric crossover scene.
