HOLY CRAP! DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS?

My number two album of 2018 was Crypt Trip's 'Rootstock', and a year later, they have another masterpiece.  Released in March, but I'm just finding it now.  There's a video too; check out "Gotta Get Away":

This album is as good as Rootstock, but different.  Here Crypt Trip is exploring a Grateful Dead/Allman Brothers type of 70's sound(*), and has nailed that sound to the point that nobody would ever believe this was produced in 2019.  Check out more of this album here on Bandcamp.
(*): The track in the video won't help you hear the Grateful Dead or Allman Brothers reference, but the rest of the album will.

Crypt Trip are:

Ryan Lee - Guitar/Vocals 
Cameron Martin - Drums 
Bass - Sam Bryant 
Geoff Queen - Pedal Steel 

Check out the old telephone cord style guitar cable; these guys are throwbacks on every level, right down to the denim jackets.  Any other old guys out there are bound to like this album, and I'd like to think there's a new wave of younger folks out there who also appreciate music like this. 

I'm not surprised to see that Gabriele Fiori has lured these guys over to his record label.  Score another one for Heavy Psych Sounds.  Keep spreading the rock and roll; 

until next time
