About This Item
Critically admired and fan celebrated San Francisco psychedelic power rockers Assemble Head in Sunburst Sound delivers a one-two punch of psychedelic power cooler and lunar outpost chill out on their long awaited new album Manzanita. The most realized document of the band's shape shifting powers yet, Manzanita is a gumbo of potent California psychedelic pop rock brimming and bubbling over with feeling, fuzz, soul, sunshine melancholy, feral ferocity and hook-laden mystery. The electrically colorful quartet, whose sound was once described as 're-envisioning Spiritualized as a jam band,' creates what can be described as 'post psych roc' that is at once pastoral, menacing, leaden and ethereal. Or maybe the band themselves describe it all best 'Imagine you're alone, and [our band's] along and we're playing you a gig - our last glorious supper on this giant abandoned space freighter, just before we're ripped asunder in the gravity of giant planets. That's what we're going for.' Album Tracks 1. L.A. Sacrifice 2. (Gone) 'Round the Corner 3. Blue Wire 4. Sunshine 5. Ghost String 6. Slithery Thing 7. Green Meadow Slowdown 8. The Flume 9. Low Island Blues
