Album Notes & Community Reviews

This sprawling, limited-edition six-disc compilation serves as a massive underground tribute to the experimental and psychedelic music scenes of the 1960s and 70s. Featuring heavyweights of the modern weird-folk and drone movements, the collection weaves through hours of isolating, ritualistic dark ambient soundscapes and acoustic improvisation.
