"Newest offering by the Acid Mothers bunch. This has got to be the (if not one of the) H-E-A-V-I-E-S-T CD's / lp's these Japanese acid-psych rockers ever put out. Disc features two lengthy cuts - "Eternal Incarnation Or Perpetual" (36:29) with plenty of ripping synthesizer and shredding guitar (Buckethead, eat your heart out) and "Recurring Dream And Apocalypse Of Darkness" (36:30) - I know I hear some flute in there somewhere as well as some superb electronic oscillations within. Every bit as outstanding as some of the AMT's earlier gems, like their self-titled debut, 'IAO Chant' and 'Have You Seen The Other Side Of The Sky?'. Heard the 2-lp version of this title has two bonus cuts. Too bad I'll probably never get to hear them - haven't had a turn table in years. Fans of early Sabbath, Hawkwind and Monster Magnet are likely to have to stop to catch their breath (as I did) after they thoroughly experience this must-have CD. Acid-heads, hippies and fellow tripsters - rejoice! This disc is 100% essential."
Tight album

"This is my first Acid Mother album. It knocked my socks off. I recommend this to anyone with a taste for psychedelia"
