MAMMOTH SEED (S/T EP)




  The take could be once the EP is viewed through a rose-tinted kaleidoscope, the trippy fluidness initiates the road to psychedelia. On a sunny day across the plains, in a wagon.

  London Train Woman Blues is caught in the usual Rock n Roll macho serenade with interesting blues-inspired leads and a bass somewhere between audible and background. It ends in typical Rock n Roll fashion; receding vibrato.

  The heaviest track -- and longest track; Hypopsychedelicatessen -- starts with bass followed by a down-tuned riff that starts picking pace as the song progresses. Moments of psychedelia can be heard at the start and at the end. Here I'll take the hypo- for under (an influence of psychedelic... the rest is quite unfathomable).

  Dartless -- " ... at the local where we perform. Someone is still up for the Bull's Eye in the meanwhile ... ". Nice skit. Man.

  Don't Take Me There. This is what they overwhelm the patrons with. And fuck, it's the catchiest of all. Somehow it feels transgressing into some post-rock.

  Bourbon Stains is a track with a trippy feel and a dance-able beat! It is also heavy. Fuck! Canadians with American stains.

 The spirit of Rock n Roll.

  4/5
