About this item

Less than a year after releasing their debut, and with their lineup now settled, The See See return with their second album for Dell'Orso. With this new release, The See See have created an album far more dynamic than its predecessor. Aligning a brash love of U.S. West Coast psychedelia to latter-day European influences (Spacemen 3 particularly), ‘Fountayne Mountain' weaves harmonized laments through McGuinn-esque guitars.

This is a band who have now become a lush sum of their parts. Led by Richard Olson (who previously fronted acid folk rock band Eighteenth Day Of May) this London based group have on this record pooled their influences together to make an album of a perfect two halves, dishing up spun out ballads (Big Wheels, Fix Me Up), alongside euphoric, lazer guided instrumentals (Sunbleached) and ritualistic, daisy-chained rollercoasters (The Day That Was The Day).

This album will be released on compact disc and through digital formats on Dell'Orso and on limited edition tri-coloured vinyl via our friends at Great Pop Supplement.

GPS will also be releasing the first single from the album, Gold & Honey' on 7" only backed by a superb kraut-remix of Sunbleached by Eat Lights Become Lights. To coincide with this single release The See See have just supported one of our all time favourites, Olivia Tremor Control at Cargo, London.

Darryl says: Like a sweet psyche dappled mix of The Byrds and Spacemen 3. Highly recommended!
