If you want to know what the whole Acid Mothers Temple Soul collective thing is all about then I offer this CD - not as the answer, their albums are too many and varied for that, but as a possible entry point into their musical universe. The opener is wild - there can only be surrender to the wall of psychedelic sounds that come at you - to resist is to suffer. It's like a force of nature - then when you and it are in tune with - it alters reality. The other tracks display a huge range of musical roots, some are so delicate and ethereal, distant medieval tunes with swelling synths and odd noises (definite Gong textures in there) - then track 5 almost blows your speakers to bits before it's back to the sounds of the stars singing. Not music to be taken lightly - the best stuff never is. How this strong sonic vision interacts with the Planet Gong is bound to be fascinating journey - one that has already begun with the Guru & Zero, the Daevid, Makoto, Cotton link-up.
