Under The Spell Of Joy - Vinyle Vert 180 Gr

Description

With Under the Spell of Joy, Death Valley Girls deliver a transcendental rock manifesto, infused with light, ecstasy, and a certain taste for the invisible. From the opening track, "Hypnagogia," a true ode to the floating state between waking and sleeping, the tone is set: hypnotic bass, cosmic saxophone, haunting organ, and mystical choirs build a vibrant wall of sound. Bonnie Bloomgarden leads the procession, her captivating voice supported by a celestial chorus. The album then shifts into euphoria with the furious "Hold My Hand," before unveiling the title track, an impetuous fusion of Stooges' grit and the purity of a children's choir chanting "under the spell of joy / under the spell of love." Between shadow and light, the band achieves a form of pop ecstasy on "Bliss Out" or "The Universe," guided by The Kid's organ lines and sax flourishes. An album at the crossroads of garage, psych, and the spiritual, designed to celebrate joy as an altered state of consciousness. Green 180g vinyl edition.
