Comment:

Even in the days of paisley and patchouli, there was more floating around in the air than just gentle jams and laid-back licks, and today's neo-hippie rockers are ready, willing, and able to bring the noise. Entrance opens up the door to a fuzz-drenched, blues-rock roar on the Led Zep-loving "Grim Reaper Blues." San Francisco's Howlin Rain honors the acid-rock [i]crunch[/i] of their Frisco forebears Blue Cheer with the wah-wah wail of "Dancers At the End of Time." And White Rainbow offers up a different kind of intensity with the hypnotic, electro-tribal power of the pulsing "Mystic Prism."
