Rocket Probes March 2011 Playlist



Gnod – INGNODWETRUST
(We are so excited by this new Gnod album... monster studio versions of two live favourites! released on June 6th, see here for more details soon)

Shit and Shine – Live in SXSW
(The UK misses this fuckin’ great band!!)

Nackt Insection – Reality Bridge
(Solo album by guy from Moon Unit, really ace kosmiche drones with a nice Spacemen 3 vibe, till the last track of up beat motorik kicks in...on the great Blackest Rainbow)

Light Sounds Dark/Psychemagik – After the void
(Third compilation (I think) from the Light and Dark guys..like past two not all great but when it hits they hit...great comps worth tracking down)

Fairhorns – Fairhorns
(New project by Team Brick that is worth tracking down, wouldn’t sound out of place on Not Not fun)

Carlton Melton – Handling snakes / The One That Got Away
(Nice screen printed 7” from this great band, looking forward to seeing their up and coming shows with Mugstar)

Mugstar – TBC
(Talking of Mugstar we just received their track for the forthcoming Collisions LP on Rocket with Oneida. A great 15minute psych monster recalling the riffs of Hawkwind, the repetition of The Heads and Cave and the melody of Sonic Youth)

Drum Cunt / Gnod – Vatican Remix
(How can anyone add anything to Gnod's Vatican - an intense trip as it is. DC manages to alienate the listeners psyche
further
with its acid squelches)

John Coltrane – Ole
(The title track - hypnotic cymbal pulse - equal parts Iberian dance, desert sirocco and evening raga)

Human Beast - Vol 1
(Heavy dark psyche wah wah rock)

James Brown - Hot Pants
(Escape-Ism (19 minute version)

King Crimson – Earthbound
(Low-fi live album in all its rawness - dirty and intense)
