Album Notes & Community Reviews

Long before their transition into highly polished heavy metal, the London outfit debuted with a murky, effects-laden barrage of space-rock and heavy psych. Characterized by extensive, repetitive cosmic jams and a raw, garage-like production, the record achieved surprising early success in Japan and Germany, foreshadowing their eventual global reach.
