About this item

• The third in the 'psychiatric trilogy' of albums by Luke Haines (The Auteurs, The Servants, Black Box Recorder) and Peter Buck (R.E.M).

• Recorded in Portland Oregon, USA foot-down-to-thefloor- throttle-out style.

Expect to sail through churning psychedelic excursions that ask for clarity on questions like... Have you ever been cold called by someone claiming to represent the Pink Floyd research group? Have you been stranded on the moon with Papa John Philips? (and then realised you were out of drugs). Can you count your nervous breakdowns on the paws of more than two dozen cats? Does it feel like all you ever do is answer questions? Yes? No? Then take a trip down to the river...to blow your mind.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Buck and Haines return for another round of deeply psychedelic excursions that are absolutely full of humour, and so packed with stunning musicianship that they really can't put a foot wrong. Ace.
