Farflung April Euro Tour Dates Revealed
So now the pieces come together. Been waiting on European tour dates for Los Angeles-based space rockers Farflung for a while now, it feels like, and the announcement of dates and venues fits about what was expected. The band head abroad again under the banner of Heavy Psych Sounds to herald the release of their forthcoming Unwound Celluloid Frown EP, following up on last year’s full-length, 5 (review here), which offered trippy joys for all willing to lose themselves in its cosmic expanse. Unwound Celluloid Frown is due out in April, and we knew from prior announcements that Farflung would appear at Desertfest Berlin 2017 — also in April — so yeah, confirmation that they’ll be on tour around that isn’t a huge surprise. Welcome news all the same.
Oh, and the EP rules. Stay tuned for more on it.

Cosmic space lords Farflung return with their new Ep ‘Unwound Celluloid Frown’ 33 minutes of lysergic grooves and slamming riffs. Imagine, as if the bastard child of Amon Duul ii and Hawkwind arose from the ashes of America. Stark and glimmering, bathed in the energetic glow of the Stooges, one last cup raised to the lunatics and wishing for wounds. They have set their course for the farthest reaches of the universe.
Are you ready? Are you ready to climb aboard their craft? Fasten your safety belts, engage your breathing apparatus. The lift off is about to begin.
Recorded at Saturn Moon Studio and EMU4 Tritium in 016/017 produced by Grenas/Esther/Nakata. With Special Guests: Abby Travis (Track 3) / Jensen Bell. (Track 3)
