Album Notes & Community Reviews

WAR expands their groove-heavy approach with 'Galaxy', incorporating prominent space and psychedelic themes into their sound. The title track became a definitive anthem, heavily utilizing synthesizers alongside their trademark Latin-tinged percussion and driving basslines. It captures the vibrant, cross-cultural energy of 1970s Los Angeles.
