We’ve been listening to this in tandem with their Trensmat release – which hang on we are just checking – should by rights feature later in this missive or else the next should it have fallen off the schedule. Astral Social Club like you’ve never heard them before, well at least not for a while, these days found piloting voyages to the outer reaches of the musical cosmos this gorgeously trippy face off between ASC flight commander Mr Campbell and Mr Owen here under the guise Bacon Industries entitled ‘sweetheart’. A three part celestial bliss kissing suite which per the credit notes is a song about leaving your sweetheart which translates sonically as 12 minutes of out there wooziness all seductively wrapped in forlorn cascades of starry eyed euphoria, ethereal chorals, mind warping mantras and dissolving riff raptures which for the best part lend themselves to moments likened to finding yourself amid some surreal dreamy collage wherein at various passages things begin to fracture, dissipate and blur together into a thick mind morphing mallowy landscape, will appeal in the first instance to admirers of FSA and Sonic Boom in his Spectrum hat. In short the sound of a celestial tumble drier with the setting hiked up to heavenly.
Hi Mark, just been pointed at your review of Astral Social Club vs. Bacon Industries. Thanks I was very surprised anyone had noticed it and more surprised that you liked it. Hopefully we’ll have more out soon and may be playing in Leeds with a live crew at Hogwash in the New Year. Thanks again.
