post-industrial nu-psychedelia… last few copies

blurb

This album is such a departure from the past and yet still so purely a Gong we 'know', that I'm struggling to find the right words to convey it to you correctly - you eventually like or loathe it. Accepting the journey of the album as a whole, I'm loving it more and more. I can see this being some people's favourite Gong album ever.

The track that is going to split opinion is 'Makototen'. It's the only one that comes remotely near what was played at the Acidmothersgong gig at the Royal Festival Hall in October '03… I think it's amazing and re-visit it often.

This album will make you laugh, jump, despair, see further, dance to sounds you thought you'd never dance to - but only if you want to - IT IS GONG.
