EP: The (pt )
Available from: twitter com/paralusmusic
Web: paralusmusic com Verdict: Cold dark and moody pop; at
mospheric electronica movie like sounds of the eighties intertwined with soft harmo
nious gaelic style female vocals that's just brilliant! It's a shocking winning formula and if you're new to
three piece girl band GIANA FACTORY then I totally recommend that you hear the entire track album
titled 'Lemon moon' as it defies belief with the complexity of it's simplistic genius Admittedly I found this
tricky to get into to begin with but when I got it I realised just how perfect it is; either listen start to finish
like I did or perhaps start with the title track Highlights for me were 'Head up high 'Live at night' 'In be
tween' and 'Right or wrong' or I could just list every track

Available from: blacklightsecret bandcamp com
Verdict: CIf you grew up with HAWKWIND OZRIC TENTACLES WHITE NOISE
or PINK FAIRIES then you must get into BLACK LIGHT SECRET as they continue the
work taking things to another level True stunning guitar playing intentional lengthy and mainly instru
mental epic space trance rock tunes with the exception of the odd psychedelic phrase sung on the minute
masterpiece 'Stolen Boy' As a record 'Surya Yantra' is enlightening and ambient or rocking the galaxy for
over minutes and you would welcome it to extend The guitar and bass work on here makes you wonder
if they have backgrounds in physics or electronic engineering because it's just unbelievable
