| 2009 release ; new master of this apocalyptic free-psych burner, spurred into existence by songwriters bob grasmere & brian elliot along with the connecticut tribe ...
... one of the finest examples of “electronic psych” ; thing’s loaded with sound-collages (listen to the sound-sample), in-situ studio mania, and simply put one of the heaviest fidelities on record ...
essential listening for any/all casual/completists of late, late 60’s freedom ... |

| esp 2001 cromagnon - cave rock
already commercially successful as tune-smiths for teenyboppers, austin grasmere and brian elliot approached bernard stollman looking to focus their talents on something more original and unrestrained. stollman asked, “what would be your theme?” and elliot replied: “everything is one.” bernard said, “go do it.” what followed was cromagnon's (grasmere, elliot and the connecticut tribe) non-linear journey through the subconscious, weaving together bizarre instrumentation and meter with a psychotic blending of musical styles.
bagpipes, pounding percussion, blood-curdling yelps, chanting, laughing, and billowing subterranean rumblings create the otherworldly soundscape that is cave rock. heralded as one of the best freak-out records of all time, cave rock was ridiculously ahead of its time and brings to mind the savage sound-fuckery of nurse with wound and throbbing gristle as well as the hallucinations of early red krayola.
