The Legendary Pink Dots - The Maria Dimension (1991)
Previously on OPIUM HUM:
Legendary Pink Dots - Chemical Playschool ! & 2 (1981)
A full-on masterpiece of dark, mind-melting outsider psych. Come get lost in a dense musical forest of acoustic and fuzzed-out guitars, synth, saxophone, and more, throughout which Edward Ka-Spel's warped, desperate vocals echo. Perfect in every way, except in that it is too creepy for mixed company.
Track listing:
1. Disturbance
2. Pennies for Heaven
3. Third Secret
4. The Grain Kings
5. The Ocean Cried 'Blue Murder'
6. Belladonna
7. A Space Between
8. Evolution
9. Cheraderama
10. Lilith
11. Fourth Secret
12. Expresso Noir
13. Home
14. Crushed Velvet
Deep down horrors untold
In the hold

Whoa, hadn't heard that first track, so rad!!
DeleteBack in the Napster days one of the first tracks I ever downloaded was from the Legendary Pink Dots. I had read about them in Option, a long gone great music mag. After I burned a cd with a bunch of other psychedelic tracks I forgot who they were but I still have that cd and am always fascinated by that voice that never gets tiring. So after downloading this, I was stunned that this was who they were all the time. Thanks for this very great and entertaining release and for the joyful epiphany.
ReplyDeleteI love when stuff like that happens! I have a mystery track that was in the folder for some other album that I got off Soulseek like ten years ago. It sounds kinda like Espers or something, but more abstracted. Some day I'll figure out who it is.
DeleteVery thx!
