Black Rainbows - Cosmic Ritual Supertrip

The sounds of fiery stoned psychedelic rock blasting 
from my headphones means that Black Rainbows have got 
a new album out. It feels a bit darker and heavier this time around. 
Fuzz, powerful riffs, great song compositions and vocals buried 
under the sonic assault continue the fine run of Black Rainbows releases. 


Tired of 10 minute prog rock tracks passed of as
 Doom/Stoner songs? Well plug into these Italian guys vision 
of rock. Tight, taut songs that hit you between the eyes 
are order of the day here, served up with catchy-as -fuck choruses, 
world weary vocals and scorched earth solos that never overstay 
their welcome. Heavy, groovy, unstoppable with hints of space 
rock expansiveness combine with driving Stoner song structures
 to make each track sound like a classic cut on first hearing. Hints of 
fuzz electric blues are scattered throughout with searing effect
 and yes, it does make me want to drive faster with my arm hanging
 out of the window, music blaring from the speakers on the way 
to some humdrum place of work, having my soul lifted 
by this potential masterpiece.
