Product Description Mugstar s third album (and second on Important Records)maintains the power and heaviness of the sonic assaultslaid out in their previous releases while extending musicalmaneuvers and textures into new territories. Sunburnt Impedance Machine moves through drivingriff passages with soaring guitars and a voice recallingtouches of early Floyd before locking into a repetitivekeyboard and drum driven outro. Serra is an extendedvoyage through a shimmering Krautrock landscape,with continuous expectant grooves that call to minda turbo-charged Neu! combined with heavy waves ofchurning minimalist synth à la Glass or Reich. Clinic sJonathan Hartley guests here, adding distant bursts ofhaunting clarinet skronk to induce flashes of Nik Turner orBeefheart. Radar King launches with mesmeric drumsand bass while guitars weave and build to near climaxbefore descending to an eerie space a noise fest SonicYouth would revel in! And finally, Beyond The Sun closes in a more reflective mood, with incessant rhythmspunctuated by arpeggiated synths and distant vocals thatevoke a feeling of pastoral psychedelia.Take the list of band names mentioned above; add a fewothers along the lines of Bardo Pond, Oneida, Circle,and Kinski; wind the intensity and volume levels up toblistering; and you ll be entering Mugstar s universe. Review Mugstar are the sound of 10,000 exploding suns,pulsing with repetitive beauty and pounding like asupersonic mantra. --Music Is AmazingA repetitive chug, quite Hawkwind-like with a side ofOneida, courtesy of the chirping organ hits that keepthings moving ... the guitar riff is beefy and the prog-rockbreaks with organ emphasis feel pretty good. --Dusted
