The Cosmic Dead to Release EasterFaust 12″ Next Month
They’re buried pretty deep in the languid interstellar groove at first, but there are vocals at least in “Part I” of Glasgow jammers The Cosmic Dead‘s new 12″ release, EasterFaust. Given the fact that side A is 22 minutes, I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that the whole LP, which is being put out in a limited edition of 400 copies via Sound of Cobra Records, is one long song, and that “Part II” is no less far out than its companion, which you can stream below.
One bit of subtle good news within the overarching good news of a new The Cosmic Dead LP is where in the quote below the band say “the first slab” from the sessions, as if to imply more are coming.
Vinyl is due next month in 180 gram edition of 400. The PR wire brings details:
THE COSMIC DEAD “EasterFaust” 12″ LP
Since 2010, The Cosmic Dead have been exploring the outer reaches of kraut rock, doom and psychedelia, tasting the extremes of sound and fusing them into a single, all-enveloping web of stratospheric riffing, otherworldly ambience and kosmic textures that has spread itself across countless shows throughout all Europe.
Remember that satanic drug thing you didn’t understand? Forget about it! Here comes the new breed and it’s a fierce and fiery force! A creeping barrage of sound that embodies the spirit of heavy psychedelic freak-outs from the Godz and Hawkind to early Monster Magnet („25… Tab“-era) and Acid Mother’s Temple to set you afire. Want some? Tune in, turn on, get burned!
“For anyone who hasn’t yet stood before the Dead and their live homage to the cosmos, expect religious devotion to synthesised dreamworlds, subsonic grooves, guitaristic splendour and the vast, hypnotic sounds of Hawkwind and Popol Vuh eternally jamming in the Möbius strip of time and space.”
“Last year we spent a week with our spirit yogi Luigi Pasquini making unrelenting noise in a tiny garage nestled in the valleys of Kyle of Lochalsh.. from this manic session the first slab of vinyl is right now being pressed via Sound of Cobra.. have a wee preview and get yourself a pre-order below as this one is cosmogonical and we are in a major joy state knowing we can now present it to you!”
