▲▲▲ New Track Premiere - Space Mountain Part II: High Country ▲▲▲

Today marks the release of the second part of our track Space Mountain, following on from Desert Djilo; this segment is entitled High Country! 'High Country' picks up where 'Desert Djilo' left off, it is both connected and disconnected with the previous and ominously speeds up like a hijacked train full of Uranium where synths. fiddles and guitars intertwine.

The track is taken from our upcoming album 'Infinite Peaks' released on April 12th via HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS.
You can listen to a preview over at the Psychedelic Baby Magazine website over here.

You can pre-order the album HERE, or if you are in the USA, over HERE!

▲▲▲ "SPACE MOUNTAIN PART I: DESERT DJILO" - SINGLE RELEASE AND VIDEO PREMIERE ▲▲▲

“‘Desert Djilo’ is the opening section of our 20-minute instrumental track ‘Space Mountain’, completely improvised and recorded live in the studio, it was in itself part of a larger jam. This is a jam within a jam, synth follows bass follows drums follows fiddle. The sound of the radioactive desert.”

▲▲▲ INTERGALACTIC CONNECTION RELEASE ▲▲▲


Excited to announce the release of 'the psychedelic-space split of the century!!' in collaboration with Italian psychers Giรถbia and Heavy Psych Sounds Records!



“The Intergalactic Connection – Exploring The Sideral Remote Hyperspace”

It’s a split album that came from deep deep space !!!

Here Giรถbia meets The Cosmic Dead, two of the best modern space-rock bands you can find. The Italian quartet come with 3 incredible songs, while the Scottish guys deliver a 19 minute long suite.

This piece of psychedelic journey is a travel inside the universe, 4 tracks full of heavy psych and space rock riffs that will bring you into a psychedelic vortex with no way out!

A must-have for all the space travelers. Fans of Hawkwind, Pink Floyd, UFO and Gong will be more than enthusiastic… It’s a Space Ritual journey!!
