'Hall Of Mirrors' - Various Artists (Emperor Jones) 2-CD, May 7, 2007
This review is from: Hall of Mirrors (Audio CD)
As for the (seemingly) countless/many various artists CD compilations available out today, I usually avoid most of the ones that feature alternative, death metal or post-rock artists. However as for the comps with the space rock, krautrock or psychedelic bands like this 2-CD collection is an exception. Total of 22 killer tracks here to be fully taken in. Tunes I found myself playing over numerous times are the typical Kinski cut "Teen Center", Gravitar's heavy way-out there "Maybe Ben Hur" (great guitar feedback), the wailing ST 37 track "They Time" (have always liked this Texas ensemble), the superbly done Vokokesh "Somnambulist", SubArachnoid's "S.F. Eagle" (the heaviest tune I believe I've ever heard from them), the inventive Escapade gem "4'33", Abunai's "Our Wayward Fuel" (nice to finally hear another song of theirs), the loud and droning Bardo Pond's "do The Flood" and and the in-your-face cosmic Transpacific "Fall River Mills". Gets better with each spin. Simply a must-have.
