DJ SHEEP REVIEW

This is completely off-the-hook abstract Australian psych-rock. Evidently self-produced by the band and never formally distributed, copies of this super-limited pressing are creeping their way across the globe. Only 500 were ever pressed. Recorded direct to digital tape by just a drummer, bassist, and guitarist, the sounds run the gamut from surging, moody, textural, and nearly beatless masterpieces like “Man Coda” and “Reality’s Way” to the tense, jazzy, and angular “The Little Prince” to the stupid ill cut “Zeitgeist,” an all-out sonic rock assault that would make Les Claypool shit in his pants. This song also has an insane drum intro. Demented genius.

    Great post. I got it from the original poster, but good job re-editing the cover photos skew.

    Any credits to the original poster?

    I was one of the original members of this band and played electric trumpet. the band formed in Brisbane around 1974 and I left when the rest of the members decided to move to Melbourne. I was still studying at Qld Con of Music. I was involved in this recording though, which was done at the Qld Con of Music recording studio when the band returned to Brisbane after a year in Melbourne.
