AMAZING ALBUM by Kevin Clancey (Reading, PA)  5 Stars
March 21, 2009
This cd is great. One of the top mood bands out there. Listen to this album before you walk into a forest filled with man eating gummi bears.

It's like ... by bowery boy (seattle) 5 Stars
March 15, 2009
...Boards of Canada's Campfire Headphase with vocoder vocals and a healthy dose of Freescha's Head Warlock Double Stare.
If you know exactly what I'm talking about and are looking for something similar yet simultaneously unique, then I guarantee you can do no wrong if you stop here and check these guys out. The album art appropriately captures the mood of the album.
When you're finished, don't stop there. Apparently each mysteriously named member of the band (Tobacco, The Seven Fields of Aphelion, Iffernaut, Power Pill Fist, and Father Hummingbird) has their own side project under their mysterious member name.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, pick up Dandelion Gum along with the other two above mentioned ablums now, sit back, and prepare yourself for a blissed out, psychedelic ride of electronica, 70s inspired folk, and dreamy weirdness.

yeah it's true by chimni (Los Angeles, CA) 5 Stars
February 21, 2009
I agree with all the other reviewers so far, except that instead of making the Boards of Canada comparison (which I can see, it's just kind of a stretch) I'd make the Air comparison. When I first heard this album, I didn't think much of it. It felt too synthesized and lacking in the human element... but then I listened to it again, and I can't really explained why, but things just clicked and I absolutely HAD to listen to this once a day, mostly right after waking up... and if I didn't something felt missing.
Crazy, right?
So, bottom line: It took a few listens without any distractions, but now I am a huge BMSR fan and I'm looking forward to their next release coming up in a few months (and really glad that stories of their dis-banding were just rumors).

forever heavy by McSpunkle (USA)  4 Stars
January 14, 2009
Analog synths, dusty breakbeats, mellotron, theremin, fuzzy basslines, gross misuse of a vocoder, what's not to like? The song titles say it all. Also check out their album with The Octopus Project, "The House Of Apples And Eyeballs". Music to melt yer mind...

I think it is beautiful by Lee (MI, United States) 5 Stars
November 04, 2008
This is a great album, other worldly psychedelic sounds that are fun to hear. I read in an interview with the band that the concept behind this album was that someone was lost in the woods, and found this house, and a lady inside the house gave them different kinds of candy, and each song is supposed to be what they experienced when they ate it, kind of interesting. Definitely visionary, but it's not hard to get into.

| The House of Apples and Eyeballs
by The Octopus Project and Black Moth Super Rainbow
"The House of Apples & Eyeballs" is not a split, but a year-long, full-length collaboration by both bands. The Octopus Project is known and loved for their uncategorizable broken-guitars-meet-samplers-meet-drums-meet-drum machines sound, while the musical island of Black Moth Super Rainbow would rather play their songs in the woods and not let you know if their gear is broken or working just fine. Holding hands from Austin to Pittsburgh, they set out to create one of the wilder pop records of...
