- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
Mesmer is the best kept secret of the wildly blooming psych-underground. A
ruthless sensation with a taste for droning psychedelia, repetitive one chord
boogie, motorik synth-rock and neanderthal drum 'n bass. Mesmer is constantly
searching for new musical boundaries - just to explode them into pieces!
ItÆs pretty useless to try to categorize the band. Some might notice a strong
influence of motorik krautrock running through the album, others might hear
the legacy of post-punk in the restless and noisy nature of the eight tracks
presented. Synthetic arpeggios are enfolding the weightless guitar harmonies
and psychedelic noise into a pulsating wall of sound, and there, in the
middle of the sonic mayhem, lies a simple rock song.
