I love mind-altering music. I love Heavy Psych that becomes an audio time machine that allows my mind to be beyond free. I love the flow of weirdness that some bands create with their riffs, especially when the music has power! I love the new album by the Heavy Psych band IT’S NOT NIGHT: IT’S SPACE called Our Birth Is But A Sleep And A Forgetting, because it’s a ride into never never land. This sonic voyage of change will be released on June 24th via Small Stone Records. Right now if you scroll down you can check out the new IT’S NOT NIGHT: IT’S SPACE song “Starry Wisdom” that we are streaming below…make sure to check out the outergaltic pre-order happening HERE!
The track was born, like most of our songs, out of jam but this one was
particularly potent. During the auspicious dog days of July 2013, we had
one particular session that delivered to us a lot of the material that
wound up on the record. We would jam for 20min, take a break, jam again,
etc. One of those blocks delivered this song petty much in its entirety. We
trimmed the fat and rearranged maybe one or two riffs in the middle, but
this song basically arrived as is, start to finish, in a way that is
different from how we normally work. The title is a nod to Lovecraft as
Starry Wisdom is the name of a cult that exists in his mythos.
