5.0 out of 5 stars Breathe the Stardust, June 9, 2008

By	Exxxxx (shack in the wilderness.) - See all my reviews

I'm new to this band, but I've grown to really like just about everything I've heard from them so far with Dandelion Gum being by far my favorite album. Their songs sound like collections of late seventies/early eighties PBS educational show's theme songs on steroids and dust, set to quasi-hip hop beats with a dash of folk and rock splashed in the right places for good measure. I know all those elements combined seem like they would be ridiculous together but it actually works and sounds incredible. Tracks like "When the Sun Grows on Your Tongue", "Jump Into My Mouth and Breathe the Stardust", & "Forever Heavy" have been rolling around in my head for days now, the rest of the album has stuck really well, but those are the tracks that stood out for me. I've listened to nothing but BMSR and The Octopus Project for the past week or so, but Dandelion Gum has been the one getting the most play. I honestly can't think of anything signifigantly wrong with this record and would highly recommend it to people with open minded musical tastes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Convincingly Psychedelic, March 22, 2008

By	N. Solish "I am a scientist." (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This album is just awesome. Totally mind blowing. Interesting, strange, melodic, filled with oddball instrumentation somehow worked out so as to be catchy and weird at the same time. I've been really digging this record for a few weeks now and highly recommend checking them out.

4.0 out of 5 stars forever heavy, January 13, 2009

By	McSpunkle (USA) - See all my reviews

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...
