Kylesa to Reissue Catalog Through Heavy Psych Sounds; Preorders Up

I guess it’s possible we’re counting Kylesa‘s 2002 self-titled debut as a demo here? It was certainly raw compared to the band they’d become over their years together. But I don’t know, because the PR wire info lists 2005’s To Walk a Middle Course — on the heels of which they signed to Prosthetic for the subsequent two releases, 2006’s Time Will Fuse its Worth and 2009’s Static Tensions (review here) before aligning to Season of Mist — as the second record, so maybe it’s just a question of there being four more to come instead of three. Perhaps an issue for another time. The point here is that the three records listed above originally put out between 2005-’09 are being reissued on vinyl through Heavy Psych Sounds.

That puts Kylesa in the choice company of Dozer and Nebula as an act for whom the Italian label has embarked on a reissue series. While they’re without the doubt the least stoner rock of that bill, their more aggressive style — highlighted during this period of their tenure — was always tinged with an undercurrent of heavy. In any case, can’t argue. These records deserve to be heard, as the does the rest (?) of the Savannah, Georgia, troupe’s catalog apparently to see reissue next year.

Preorders up now. Links, all three album streams, and whatnot follow:
