| ah... i’ve been trying to get this one for a while now...
spoils of war were an experimental-psych group spearheded by james cuomo; a student of legendary wdr composer herbert brün (in fact one of brün’s killer fractal-paintings was used as the cover for the original 33rpm ep of “what happens now...” ) at the university of illinois urbana in the late 60s; it’s one of the better examples of the late 60s psychedelia “thing” butting heads with the academic tape-studio environ.
if you’re feeling the first white noise lp, silver apples, etc... this is pretty amazing piece of that very same puzzle... there’s a bit of fairy-dipped lite-psych, but it’s augmented by a few killer musique concrète pieces... highly recommended. |
| | | my favoured release of this year, lp and 7 inch ep, from mastertapes. never pressed before so you don´t have to look for originals, folks. heavy psych with tiny folky edges plus electronic soundscapes like first album by mothers of invention. has a connection to mormos but only the musicians, not the music. this is real heavy acid stuff, weird and twisted, stoned to max, pure lsd (loud screaming distortions), warning, people with fragile heart condition and emotionally unbalanced should not play this album... |
