Description
2020 repress, 150 copies on magenta/white marbled vinyl, gatefold sleeve, EXCLUSIVE KOZMIK ARTIFACTZ EDITION!
2019 full-length by the instrumental heavy stoner/psych rock outfit from the Netherlands. The album contains four addictive tracks. Get hooked and hypnotized!
"This is what it's all about. Four longer-form instrumentalist heavy psych jams that are warm in tone and want nothing so much as to go out wandering and see what they can find. Through "Hydrogen," "Atmos," "Delta-V" and "Heliosphere," Amsterdam-based three-piece Mantra Machine want nothing for gig-style vitality, but their purpose isn't so much to electrify as to find that perfect moment of chill and let it go, see where it ends up, and they get there to be sure.
Warm guitar and bass tones call to mind something that might've come out of the Netherlands at the start of this decade, when bands like Sungrazer and The Machine were unfolding such fluidity as seemed to herald a new generation of heavy psychedelia across Europe. That generation took a different shape - several different shapes, in the end - but Mantra Machine's Heliosphere makes it easy to remember what was so exciting about that in the first place. Total immersion. Total sense of welcoming. Totally human presence without speaking a word. So much vibe. So much right on." (Review by TheObelisk.net)
