Rls Notes
3rd album by Lamp of The Universe, the acid
folk/psychedelic project of Craig Williamson
from Hamilton, New Zealand (known also from
heavy/stoner rock band Datura). The
sitar-driven, mantraesque songs on Earth
Spirit & Sky mark another step forward on
Craig's way to conveying a meditative,
mind-expanding musical experience. Earth
Spirit & Sky appears to be an epic unit made
up of 8 songs. Craig uses sitar,
acoustic/electric guitar, tablas, flute,
blissed out voice and blends elements of
space/folk/blues with sounds from the Eastern
shore for hippiesque psychedelia. Imagine an
exotic incarnation of Ethereal
Counterbalance's Rod Goodway jamming with
Spacemen 3, Holy River Family Band, Saddar
Bazaar and reaching/producing a trancelike
phantasmagoric state...
